Select the shared folder that will be the replication source and destination, then click OK.

Click OK, then Yes.
Notes:
• During setup, you may choose to encrypt and/or compress replication data. Encrypted data will be transferred
securely on the network. Compressed data will ease network loading and is recommended for slow or heavily
loaded network connections. Enabling either will increase the CPU load on the source TeraStation so that the
transfer speed will become slower, and replication time will be slower than if they are disabled. Encrypted or
compressed data will be decrypted or decompressed on the destination TeraStation.
• A maximum of 64 shared folders can be configured for replication.
• Don't use the same TeraStation for both failover and replication, or replication and Time Machine.
• Don't configure replication from one source folder to multiple destination folders.
• If a network problem causes a replication error, unsynced data may be shown as "0" even though replication is
incomplete. Click Resync to recover from the replication error. All files from the source folder will be copied to the
destination folder.
• You can specify the LAN port to use for replication such as "(LAN3)". However, if you connect two or more LAN
ports to the same network, the faster LAN port will take priority even if you specify the LAN port used. For
example, if both LAN port 1 and LAN port 3 are connected to the same network and LAN port 3 is faster, then that
port will be used even if you had configured LAN port 1 to be the port used.
To use a slower LAN port for replication in this environment, configure the LAN port settings to a different
network segment.
