Windows will search the available networks for your Network Storage Link and a window will
open displaying the contents of the

directory on your OneTouch drive.
Note:
Two directories are automatically created for you on your OneTouch Drive. The
Admin 1
directory is set up for only the administrator to use and will require a User ID and Password to be
entered by any user accessing it from a computer other than the administrator’s. The
Disk 1
directory, however, does not require a User ID or Password. You may create password-protected
directories for additional users. See Chapter 6: “Configuring the Storage Link” in the Linksys
User Guide for more information.
Your OneTouch drive is now ready for use as a networked drive. You may drag and drop files to
it, just like a normal hard drive.
