Just installed Windows Server 2012 on a HP p6527.
I want to use it as a file sharing server (pictures, movies, and music mainly), with local and remote access (3-5 users).
I am new to the whole "server" concept, and google hasn't really been too much help.
I've installed a 3TB hdd on the Server machine, but don't know how to set it up to where it would be visible by LAN users much less Remote.
My idea would be map the HDD as a network drive and allow users read/write capability on all client machines.
Like I said new to the whole server concept, not sure if this is do-able, would greatly appreciate any ideas or recommendations any one has. Or even links to some good tutorials are welcome.
Thanks in advance.
