Always setup cluster shares through cluster admin - it's a resource type file share, most of it should be self explanatory - dependency should be the network name (which in turn should be dependent on the IP address resource) and the physical disk resource. One other thing - the cluster service account must have at least read permissions (and only, if you prefer) to at least the directory that is included as the path in the file share resource - note: it need only be this directory (ie only, and nothing below) if you prefer.
