I don't know actually but I am immediately afraid.

I am guessing you are using windows.

Questions to ask:

  What fs protocol and locking protocol are you using on the NAS?

  What are you doing about geopackages and locking now?  geopackages are
  write-happy for no good reason, maybe not in the most recent code.

  what fs protocol and locking protocol will sharepoint use?

  how will systems that are not windows access sharepoint files?  mac?
  linux? FreeBSD or NetBSD?

  Can they set up a trial instance that you can check this on?

  Are you thinking about nextcloud?
