CONFIGURING BASIC SETTINGS – 64

To set your Time Machine quotas:

Note: The maximum size cannot be increased after the initial backup. WD

recommends leaving this setting on the maximum permissible value for your
initial backup. Once the initial backup is complete, you can change this
setting using the slider above.

1. Select Enable, if not already selected.

2. Select a share where you’d like to save the backup from the pull-down menu.

3. In the Maximum size field, move the slider to the maximum size setting.

4. Click

Save

.

5. Once your initial backup has been created, access Network>Backup Settings panal

again.

6. In the Maximum size field, move the slider to the maximum size setting you’d like to use

for your backup.

7. Click

Save

Important: Once your Time Machine begins to back up your files to a selected share, we

recommend that you continue to back up to that share. Switching shares
generates a new backup file which will not contain your previously saved
information.
