Here is what the manual states on p. 13:

Using The FTP Server
NASLite-2 exports all storage disks to the local
network via FTP (File Transfer Protocol). NASLite-2
will name all installed and configured fixed disk
drives available on the server computer as Disk-0
through Disk-N in consecutive order where N will be
based on the total number of installed disks. These
names are fixed and cannot be changed. All Disk-N
folders are accessible by all users. NASLite-2 also
exports three additional folders as follows:
Typical NASLite-2 FTP Shared Folders
1. Shares – Exports all available storage
volumes via a single share.
2. Remote – Exports all remotely hosted
storage volumes.
3. Status – Exports NASLite-2 status
information pages.
You will be able to connect to the NASLite-2 server
via any FTP client. For example if your NASLite-2
server IP address is set to 192.168.1.251, entering
ftp://192.168.1.251 in the Windows Explorer’s
address bar will access the server contents. Here
files and folders may be dragged-and-dropped to
and from the NASLite-2 server window.

I hope you are not thinking of using it to export the FS via FTP to the internet. There is no security at all to control access.

No, accessing the server directly is not a wise choice, that's true.

In another thread, this suggestion was made:
Quote:
Run a FTP server on your windows machine, if you have one.
then create a virtual drive to the nas drives or folders.
