Double-click the Myserver icon to show the folders available
for access, including your private folder and the public folder.
Storing files on the server
Storing files on the server is easy. Simply copy files from the
folder in your local client computer to the Magnia SG20. You
can also access these files directly with applications such as
word processors, spreadsheets, database applications, and
other programs, by simply specifying that the files reside on
the private or public drive.
To gain access to the files on the Magnia SG20, you must be
logged in to your local client computer, and your login
account must match the account established on the Magnia
SG20. If you used the setup wizard, these accounts were
established automatically. However, if you have multiple user
accounts on your client computer, the account you use when
you log in determines which files you see on the Magnia
SG20.
Sharing files
A basic use of the Magnia SG20 is for file sharing. Each
client computer connected to the Magnia SG20 can access
not only its own hard disk drive(s), but also two special areas
on the Magnia SG20’s hard disk drive. The two areas are:
❖ \public, which is used to store shared files and documents
to which all network users have access
❖ \personal, which is used to store personal files and
documents to which only the individual client computer
has access
To view these areas:
1 Open the Windows ® Network Neighborhood folder (or
My Network Places folder).
2 Select the Magnia SG20.
