The WD SmartWare Home Screen

On the Home screen, you can change the drive being categorized by using the drop-
down selection box under the name of your computer. If you select a different drive, the
WD SmartWare software identifies the categories of files on that drive. Then click the
Backup or Retrieve tab to either back up from or retrieve files to a location other than
your computer's main hard drive.
In the Content Gauge for your computer's hard drive, all of your files that are available for
backup are shown against a blue background in categories that are based on the
following folders on your computer:
• Music
• Movies
• Pictures
• Mail
• Documents
• Other
Each category includes all of the files in the represented folder except the Other
category, which includes all of the files in all other folders on your computer.
