Sharing Files by Invitation

Once your files are imported onto your Maxtor Fusion,
sharing them is easy. You can invite individuals and groups to
look at and download your content, and you can make files
publicly available. It's easy to invite an individual to share
your content – you need only select the files and enter their
email address.
