Working with remote files

When Adobe Drive 2.0 successfully connects to a DAM server, a mounted hard drive or mapped network
drive appears in the file browsers. You can use the contents of this drive the same way you use the local file
system. However, when you work with files from a DAM server, you edit the files in their remote server
location (as opposed to editing a local copy of the file and then synchronizing the local and server
versions). There is no need to perform any synchronization; the files you see in your browser actually reside
on the server.
When you save a file, Adobe Drive 2.0 stores a temporary file locally. It creates a new version of the file on
the server only when you check a file in, or save it as a specific version.
This is what a remote file system might look like, for example, in Windows Explorer.
: The cache stores information to improve performance when you're connected to a DAM
: The log records information about the status of connections, and shows installation
