<p>This is a step by step guide for <strong>removing the public share from a WD MyCloud NAS</strong> device. My devices are on the latest firmware so you may find some slight differences if you are on an older firmware or have different devices then I have. Hopefully the info here will allow you to jump over that hurdle. I have tried to explain where things may be different and how to handle them but I don’t have every MyCloud device. Please understand that you are invalidating your warranty and could possibly mess up or brick your hardware (If your here probably not). You will need to login to your MyCloud via SSH to make these changes. </p> |
|
|
|
<p>I have taken the time to make a fairly detailed guide but feel free to skip ahead and go for the Quick and Easy way it you understand what you are doing. <a href="#1">Skip the Instructions and Get to the Scripts</a></p> |
