The Automatic Sync feature continuously tracks file changes in synchronized folders and
automatically synchronizes revised versions by overwriting older versions with newer
versions. Automatic Sync can occur only when your external drive is connected.
Automatic Sync is turned on by default. If you do not want your drive automatically
synchronized while it's connected, you can turn off the Automatic Sync feature.
