Hi, thanks for reaching out. The AS1104T is a good choice for family media sharing, and you can absolutely set it up to give everyone private access while keeping shared content like photos and music open to all. The key is to build a clear folder structure and assign permissions properly from the start.
Here’s a simple layout that works well for families:
• /Family_Photos – shared read-only access for everyone so nobody can accidentally delete files.
• /Family_Music – shared read-only access, same idea as above.
• /Users – create a subfolder for each person (for example, /Users/John, /Users/Anna, /Users/Mum). Give each person full access to only their own folder.
On Android phones and TVs, install AiFoto and AiMusic from Asustor, or connect via DLNA/Media Server so the devices can see your shared folders automatically.
You can create and manage all these folders from Access Control → Shared Folders in ADM, then assign permissions under Access Control → Users or Groups.
