Network HDD

Thread needs solution

I completed my backup then booted from my bootable media I created. Once the program was open, I couldn't find my network drive to find my backup file to do a recovery. What am I doing wrong? P.S. I was able to see other computers on the network.

Is the network drive some NAS? or is it a share shared by another PC? There is no reason that the CD would see computers and their shares, but not the share where you store your backup, is that share is like the others... there must be something making that share different from the other ones. Typically, it boils down to type of share (SMB, AFS, etc.) , what is making the share available (NAS, Mac, PC, ...). Access rights should kick in only after the share is discovered on the network.

I tried it again and found the HDD when I browsed and went to 'Other Computers'. Thanks issue is resolved.
