Notes:
• If the migration target Buffalo NAS device contains shared folders, users, and groups that share the same name
as the transferred settings, the existing settings will be overwritten. If the users and groups meet the following
conditions, the settings will not be transferred: users share the same name with groups that already exist on the
migration target Buffalo NAS device; groups share the same name with users on the migration target Buffalo NAS
device.
• If the migration target Buffalo NAS devices have already added some shared folders, users, and groups, the
transferred settings may exceed the maximum number of allowed shared folders, users, or groups. Excess
items will not be transferred. After migration finishes, open Settings and verify that all settings were properly
transferred.
