Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively referencing Windows SMB paths and user formats (e.g., \\<ServerName>\<ShareName>, \\<DomainName><UserName>), and by providing instructions that align with Windows file system conventions (such as right-clicking folders and using the Security tab). There are no Linux or Unix-specific examples, nor is there guidance for non-Windows environments, despite a note that non-Windows NAS devices are not officially supported. The documentation does not mention Linux tools, commands, or file path formats, and does not provide parity for Linux administrators.
Recommendations
- Provide explicit Linux/Unix examples for SMB path formats (e.g., smb://server/share or mount -t cifs ...).
- Include instructions for managing permissions and user credentials on Linux systems (e.g., using chmod, setfacl, or mount options).
- Clarify the level of support for Linux and non-Windows NAS devices, and if unsupported, suggest workarounds or alternative approaches for Linux users.
- Add screenshots or CLI examples relevant to Linux environments, if possible.
- Avoid Windows-centric language (such as 'right-click', 'Properties', 'Security tab') or provide equivalent steps for Linux file managers or command-line tools.
