Viewing information about your storage system

Note:
24
The Home page can display two different views: Storage Status and Connection
Status. You can switch from one view to the other by clicking the desired button on
the Home page.
Storage Status—Displays information about the total storage capacity on the
l
storage system, how much disk space is allocated for shared folders, how much
is currently used by backups, and how much is available for either. (Initially,
there is no used backup space. The information on this page changes as each
computer backs up its hard disks to the storage system. You might have to
refresh the browser window to reflect these changes.)
This page also indicates how much of the storage space allocated for shared
folders is actually used, the total number of shared folders, and the number of
networked computers (backup clients) that have backed up one or more disks
on the storage system.
The total storage capacity will be less than the total size of all your hard disks
because some of the disk space is needed for the operating system and
management software.
In addition, the amount of used backup capacity will be greater than the total
size of all the disks listed on the Backups page because additional storage
space is needed for the data that has changed between backups.
