Summary
The documentation demonstrates Windows bias by focusing on SMB protocol (primarily Windows-centric), referencing file paths and user formats in Windows style (e.g., \\<ServerName>\<ShareName>), and providing instructions that assume Windows tools and conventions (such as right-clicking folders for security settings). There is a note stating that non-Windows NAS devices are not officially supported, and there are no Linux-specific examples, instructions, or troubleshooting steps. The documentation does not mention Linux file systems, mounting procedures, or alternative protocols (such as NFS), nor does it provide parity for Linux users in terms of operational guidance.
Recommendations
- Add explicit Linux support statements, or clarify limitations and workarounds for Linux users.
- Provide Linux-specific examples for connecting to NAS devices, including path formats and authentication methods.
- Include instructions for setting permissions and accessing shares from Linux systems (e.g., using smbclient, mount.cifs, or NFS if supported).
- Mention alternative protocols (such as NFS) if available, or explain why only SMB is supported.
- Offer troubleshooting steps and best practices for Linux environments, including error log access and file integrity verification.
- Ensure that references to file patterns, regular expressions, and file optimization features include Linux-relevant details.
