Is there a free SMB server to use on GT1?

Hi,
I'd like to share the whole content of the USB disk connected to my Beelink GT1 over SMB (or Samba or Windows Workgroup).
I have tried Servers Ultimate, but the trial period expired, and would like to change it to a free solution if it exists.
Does anyone know a good app for this?

I have many clients to access other shared resources, this time I need a server side on this box.
Many thx in advance

To answer my own question, SambaDroid seems to be working fine.

If the /storage folder is shared, then both the USB disk and the internal storage (sdcard) can be shared with a single share, that the free version of SambaDroid offers.

Hi, try to use
https://play.google.com/store/ap ... oldapps.sambaserver
I used this app with ES Filemanager on another android device (Samsung Galaxy Tab).

Hi,
in the meanwhile I found SambaDroid, which works well. The free version allows one share, however when sharing /storage, it can nicely share both the box storage and the connected USB disk as well, exactly what I wanted.

I wrote a post about that, replying to my original, but somehow got stuck in the moderation queue.
