About the File Browser

The File Browser allows you to transfer, copy and delete files, as well
as view photos in thumbnails and even stream multimedia content
such as mp3 or flv videos. It is thus a convenient way to interact
with files stored on the Network Space MAX's shares, whether the
connection be through the local network or through the internet (see
3.5. Remote Access). Also, since the File Browser permits faster file
transfer than drag-and-drop (SMB), it is most effective for transfer-
ring large files.
The File Browser is composed of five parts
1. Tool bar allows you to perform a range of functions, such as
changing the way files are displayed and uploading files to the
Network Space MAX from your computer.
2. NAS selection lets you choose the product you wish to access.
3. Share folders shows the folder structure on the selected share.
4. File info displays information on a selected file, such as name,
file type, dimensions (photos), or duration (videos).
5. Folder contents displays the files contained in a selected fold-
er. To view the files as thumbnails, click
bar.
