[Database Design Idea] Designs user table id by unique code rather than by auto_incrementing

Someone designs the appuser table as follows:

appuser_id
candy
abigail
florance
simon
peter
...

rather than
appuser_id
1
2
3
4
5
...

to save the effort on table joining and retrieving. For reference.

[NAS] Some Reminders on Adding an NAS to Network

• RAID 5 - needs at least 3 HDs
• Either one among 3 is down, data can be recovered; for two, nothing can be done.
• Using Reserved IP from DHCP is better, since when network is down, plugging NAS to another network with simple setting (DHCP giving random IP) and NAS can be used immediately
• Setting Reserved IP requires the device's MAC address. Need to check the given IP and its MAC address from router
• In windows, NAS drive can be searched by typing \\TheNASName\TheFolderCreated.
• Only Disk Quota can be set. Cannot set a quota for a created folder. Thus the users can share the resources among a disk, but not a folder. If allocation for different users is needed, created different disks.
