IO perf isn't where we want it to be yet, but we've some improvements coming in Creators Update and more planned for future releases.


Is it possible to access network drives yet? If not, is this something that's being worked on? Thanks!


Access network drives?

Via SSH? Sure.

Via Samba? Yep: https://www.samba.org/~garming/

If you mean MOUNT network drives, then, not yet, alas. But yes we're keen to build that support when we can.


I think they mean network drives mounted or accessed in Windows. For example, from WSL I can't access files on my network share (in windows it's \\pc-name\\shared, where pc-name is running Samba under Linux). Mapping a drive letter to it doesn't work either - the only thing that shows up in /mnt is c. This is quite a pain.


Yep - that was the mount thing I mentioned in my prev' reply: We've not yet got around to mount support, but it is on our backlog and we're keen to get to it when priorities allow ;)
