How to connect to a Windows server remotely is a very simple thing for a friend who has used Windows Server, but many novices don't understand why and why to mount the local disk to Windows Server. So today the cloud steward Dr. Zhao will teach you how to mount a local disk to a Windows server.
First: Why mount a local disk on a Windows server? This is to facilitate the local file upload to the Windows Server. Relatively backward Windows file transfer mode is through FTP file upload and download, but FTP has a complex operation, slow transmission speed, unstable operation and other shortcomings. If we hang the local disk directly on the Windows Server, each subsequent file transfer only needs to turn on remote Desktop and then, by dragging and copying, uploading the file to the specified directory of the Windows Server.
Windows Server mount disk is divided into two categories, the first type is to mount the local disk, it is obvious that this method requires the local computer to open the state and the network is normal to use, if the user changed a new device can not be used, this method has great limitations in operation, And not suitable for team collaboration. The main way now is to mount a network cloud disk on a Windows Server or a newly purchased one from a cloud vendor. I will explain the following two methods in detail below.
One: Mount local disk to Windows Server
- Windows key + R Open Run window, enter MSTSC
- Enter the remote IP address, user name, password, and then click Options
3. Click Local resources, then click Details
- Tick on the server side to display the local disk, the author choose D and E disk, and then select OK, to connect
5. After successful connection, open the server computer, you will find two more disks, these two disks are local disks
Two: Mount the network cloud disk to the Windows Server for new purchase
Now all the major network disk has been charged, from the cloud vendors new purchase disk Price is also relatively high, so here we use is the line cloud Butler free 1G Host network disk, Cloud Butler this host management tool is also free.
Cloud Butler when the user registers and imports the cloud server, each host is automatically provided with a 1G host network disk, which will be mounted as a logical disk of the server during the remote connection to the Windows Server, so that the user can transfer files (RDP File Transfer Protocol) easily.
The installation process of the host network disk is done automatically by the line Cloud Butler, which does not require the user to manually operate the configuration. More importantly, the line cloud Butler with the host network disk and the user's Windows server in the same cloud manufacturer's same intranet, and through the intranet transfer files can have gigabit network bandwidth, especially suitable for transferring large files and batch file upload.
We know that in the file transfer process if we transmission through the public network, it is obvious that the public network bandwidth constraints, not only and the business system to compete for valuable public bandwidth resources, but also seriously affect server performance. Row Cloud Butler to deploy the host network in the same intranet server, take full advantage of the cloud vendor intranet Gigabit Bandwidth advantage, users will be able to obtain 10~30mbps peak rate (ie 1.25mb~3.75mb) "Fast file transfer" experience, and no need to occupy the user server's public network bandwidth.
How do I use mounted disks and Windows servers for file transfer?
