• If you copy a file to the WebAccess Remote source folder using File Explorer or a backup process, the file will
also be copied sequentially to the WebAccess Remote target folder. This second copying process will start in the
background during the first copying process and will not be visible. If you shut down or restart the TeraStation
immediately after copying a file to the source folder, the file may not be copied to the target folder. Try copying
the file again if this occurs.
• If saving 1 TB or more files to or from the WebAccess Remote target folder, make sure there is enough free space
on the WebAccess Remote source TeraStation for temporary file caching. For example, when saving 1 TB of files to
the WebAccess Remote target folder, it is recommended to keep at least 2 TB of free space available.

TeraStation. The optional FTP server allows users outside the local network to access the TeraStation.
Note: FTP is intended for users who already have FTP client software and have experience with it.
