Summary
The documentation repeatedly emphasizes Windows-specific behaviors and limitations, such as the device being Windows-based, lack of support for case-sensitive file names, and reliance on Windows protocols (SMB). There is no mention of Linux-specific usage patterns, tools, or caveats, nor are there examples or guidance for Linux users. The documentation assumes a Windows environment as the default and does not provide parity for Linux users.
Recommendations
- Include explicit guidance and examples for Linux users, such as how to connect to Data Box using NFS from Linux systems.
- Document any Linux-specific caveats or limitations, such as file system compatibility, case sensitivity, and supported protocols.
- Balance the mention of Windows and Linux tools and patterns, ensuring that Linux equivalents (e.g., NFS, rsync, Linux file system behaviors) are described alongside Windows/SMB.
- Add troubleshooting tips and best practices for both Windows and Linux environments.
- Where Windows limitations are described (e.g., case insensitivity), clarify the impact on Linux users and suggest workarounds if available.
