WD ShareSpace File Storage
You can access and store content on WD ShareSpace via network shares. Shares 
are folders that can be used to organize and store files on your 
WD ShareSpace. Shares can be shared with everyone (public) or with selected 
users on your network (private). 
The device comes preconfigured with three shares: 
Public—created automatically after initial setup 
Shared Music - folder for storing music files you want to share with other users. 
Shared Pictures - folder for storing image files you want to share with other users. 
Shared Videos - for storing video files you want to share with other users. 
Important: Do not change or delete these default share folders. 
Disruption of file sharing could result. These are the default folders for the 
Media Server (Twonky Media) and iTunes Service. For more information on 
how to use Twonky media, see “How to Play/Stream Video, Music &
