Note:
If your computer is connected to many volumes on a TeraStation, it may take some time for the utility to detect all
the volumes. For example, it takes about 20 minutes for a computer to detect 32 connected volumes from a single
TeraStation. This time may vary depending on your computer and network. Volumes are detected successively, so
please wait until all volumes are detected before making changes in the utility.
