5.4.1 What is Freecom SYNC?

The Freecom SYNC integrated in the Freecom Personal Media Suite is a program for syn- chronizing files. The computer serves as origin of the data. This data can be processed on any number of other computers.

Example:

You create a document at work and want to work on it at home (Freecom Personal Media Suite is installed on your PC at work):

•Copy the document from the PC at work to your Freecom SYNC folder on your Freecom Hard Drive Pro.

•Open the document at home directly out of the Freecom SYNC folder. Work on it and save it in the Freecom SYNC folder.

•Connect the Freecom Hard Drive Pro to your PC at work and click "Sync now" in the Freecom Personal Suite. The document will now be synchronized between your PC at work and the Freecom Hard Drive Pro. While synchronizing, only modified files will be replaced by newer files.
