Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by repeatedly referencing Windows-specific behaviors and limitations (such as ReFS metadata, SMB protocol, and case-insensitivity), without providing equivalent details or guidance for Linux users. There are no Linux-specific examples, caveats, or tool mentions, and the documentation assumes a Windows environment as the default context.
Recommendations:
- Include explicit guidance for Linux users, such as how Data Box interacts with Linux file systems (e.g., ext4, XFS) and any relevant caveats.
- Provide examples or notes on using Data Box with Linux-based SMB/NFS clients, including any known limitations or differences.
- Clarify whether the listed limitations (e.g., case-insensitivity, ReFS metadata) apply only to Windows or also to Linux environments, and describe Linux-specific behaviors where applicable.
- Mention Linux tools or commands (e.g., rsync, cp, mount) alongside Windows tools where relevant.
- Add a section or table comparing Windows and Linux interoperability, especially for file naming, protocol support, and client connection limits.
