Importing Files
One of the first things you'll want to do is import files onto
your Maxtor Fusion. There are two ways to add files to your
Maxtor Fusion: through the web browser interface or over
your local network (LAN) using your PC's file manager
(Windows Explorer or Mac Finder). If you have a large num-
bers of files to load onto Maxtor Fusion, it is recommended
that you use the LAN interface. The files you import are
copied – the original files on your computer are not changed
or moved.
If you've added a lot of files to your Maxtor Fusion and
wonder if you have enough space to import more files, you
can check the disk space gauge in the upper right-hand part
of the interface. If you need more information than just the
percentage of disk space that's available, click the icon for a
detailed and categorized listing.
Importing Using the Web Interface
This option is best for uploading content to your Maxtor
Fusion when you are accessing it from outside of your home
network or working from someone else's computer.
