Back Up; Back Up Your Computer And Mobile Devices - Seagate SRN21C User Manual

Back up

Seagate provides several ways to protect your content. You can back up your computer, your
mobile devices, your DSR camera, and your Personal Cloud 2-Bay.
Before you back up your computer to your Personal Cloud 2-Bay, Seagate recommends that you
connect your computer directly to your router instead of using a Wi-Fi connection. Wi-Fi speeds are
not ideal for copying large quantities of files. After you have created your first backup, you can back
up future changes over Wi-Fi.
