We’re working on bringing you updated documentation for NAS devices in the near future. However, the methods of setting up third-party devices may still change when the manufacturers update their firmware or release new models. Therefore, to get the most accurate and current configuration guidance, we strongly recommend that you refer to the documentation provided by the manufacturer.
