This means your unit is actually working with Windows 10 using standard networking protocols SMB. You can map your share after you access your unit with the method you are using. This in turn will create a link that will be displayed in the Computer section. This share requires the obsolete SMB1 protocol, which is unsafe and could expose your system to attached. You system requires SMB2 or higher. Not sure if enabling SMB1 will correct the problem same as you were responding to but wanted to thank you for the link.

Very clear and easy to follow. Currently i just use it as FTP within my network…. Support Downloads Knowledge Base. I would have gotten a better response from my technically challenged wife…. I am having a similar problem, I have a windows 10 desktop and the white light network drive does not work. I cannot connect to it via the network router or directly connecting to the ethernet port of the desktop. WD Discovery just does not finds it. I have tried resetting the drive by pushing the button using the pin at the rear of the drive.

Check your power supply, multiple drives in this unit are quite power hungry. If you listen to the unit and hear the drives stopping and starting then this will certainly be something to consider. Hope this helps. I found the following procedure worked for me. Connect power cable and wait for it to cycle on then off automatically. Let it finish.

The drives web UI username and password should have reset to admin, admin. The network settings should have reset to DHCP default.
