10.12.11 Synchronizing Files

Synchronization makes the contents on the target device identical to the ones on the source device.
You can synchronize files from a USB device to the NSA or from the NSA to a USB device. In
addition, you may also synchronize files in both directions simultaneously.
Press and hold the COPY/SYNC button until you hear a beep to synchronize files. See
