Success! I was missing the Sharing stuff in the web-based setup utility.

I'd still like to know this, and before I start putting stuff on the
drive. I know that it is formatted because I can now drag and drop
files to it. I assume that Western Digital shipped the drive
unformatted, so that means that the Synology setup utility must have
formatted it. I pored through everything in the Setup utility looking
for what filesystem it used, but without success. I did find disk
information, including size, S.M.A.R.T. information, usage, and even
the WD serial number, but not a word about the filesystem. Any
suggestions, short of taking the disk out of the Synology and attaching
it to my desktop computer where I can use Gparted or something?
