Reading the Media Store Gauge
The Media Store Gauge gives you a visual indication of the amount of free space in the Media
Store.
The green block represents the proportion of space taken up by media files; the black block, the
proportion of free space. The green block can reach a point 70 per cent along the Gauge. For
used space above that, the gauge displays an amber block; then, above a level of 90 per cent, a
red block.
1.
To view details of the network path to the Media Store and the amount of used space, rest
your mouse pointer over the Gauge:
A red horizontal line indicates the “high-water mark” for the Media Store: iTX does not add
files to the Media Store when the amount of used space is at this level.
