How to Setup Airport Extreme to use it's 2TB Storage?

Hi,


I'm New to Airport Extreme. It was actually bought 2 years ago. I have the serial number of it but don't know other details.


I came to know it has inbuilt 2TB storage. How to check if it really has 2TB inbuilt storage? If it has, How to setup so we can use that 2TB storage also?


Any help and suggestion is greatly appreciated.
