__TOC__
===Amahi Home Server File Storage===
Amahi Home Server once installed provides a set of “Network Storage Shares” that are available to all Amahi user accounts. Some of them are provided for the purposes of storing media files (Music, Pictures, Movies) for all Amahi users to access. These shares are shared via the Samba (SMB) sharing service in Amahi Home Server.
The shares are located at the following directories:
* Music media: /var/hda/files/music (a.k.a. Music)
* Photograph media: /var/hda/files/pictures (a.k.a. Pictures)
* Video media: /var/hda/files/movies (a.k.a. Movies)
===ownCloud File Storage===
ownCloud once installed provides a highly configurable sharing environment for files that are accessible from a Web Browser User Interface (Web UI) or via the WebDAV sharing service built in to ownCloud. Stored files are accessible to ownCloud user accounts by various sharing configurations. Please note that Amahi and ownCloud user accounts are not the same thing. Amahi accounts are server provided while ownCloud user accounts are provided via the application.
* Physical file directory location: /var/hda/files/owncloud/data
* Information about each file: “Meta Data” stored in an SQL database, Amahi uses MySQL.
ownCloud provides an “External Storage Support” feature that supports Samba (SMB) access to files “external” to the ownCloud “internal” filesystem. This feature must be "enabled" via the ownCloud "admin" user Settings => Admin area.
