Public and Private Folders

Your Personal Cloud has a Public folder that anyone can use and a private folder where each local user can store personal content that others cannot see.

What’s the diﬀerence?

Everyone on your home network can access the Public folder. Anyone who has been given a Seagate Access account to the storage device can also access the Public folder. Use the Public folder for files you want to share and for your centralized media library.

A private folder is created for each user account and is password protected. Use your private folder to back up content that you don’t want to share with others.

Which folder to use

Public folder

Create your media library in the Public folder and copy any data that you want to share to the Public folder so that you and others can access it. See Media Library.

Private folder

Back up your content to safeguard against computer malfunctions. Content backed up to the Public folder can be viewed by anyone who has access. No one but you can view content backed up to your private folder. You can back up your computer and mobile devices using Seagate Dashboard software and Seagate Mobile Backup apps. You can also back up your backups by creating backup and sync plans in the Personal Cloud with Backup Manager

You must shut down and disconnect power from the Personal Cloud before maintenance or physical troubleshooting is performed on the device.

Shut down and unplug the unit before moving it.

Safety

Power Supply

The Personal Cloud must only be operated from a power supply input voltage range of 100 - 240 VAC, 50 to 60 Hz.

The drive’s power supply is not serviceable or replaceable. If Seagate technical support has determined that the power supply is faulty or has failed and the unit is under warranty, return the Personal Cloud to Seagate per the instructions provided by the Seagate technician.

Environment

Make sure that the electrical connection to the power cord is grounded.

Provide a suitable power source with electrical overload protection to meet the requirements of the technical specification.

Never expose your device to rain, use it near water, or use it in damp or wet conditions. Never place objects containing liquids on the enclosure, because liquid could spill into its openings. Doing so increases the risk of electrical shock, short-circuiting, fire, or personal injury.

Always unplug the device from the electrical outlet if there is a risk of lightning or if it will be unused for an extended period of time.

Do not use the Personal Cloud as a shelf to support any other object.

Personal Cloud Placement

Place your Personal Cloud on a surface that is capable of supporting its weight, including the hard drives and accessories attached to the Personal Cloud ports. Make sure the Personal Cloud is placed securely and cannot tip or be pushed over. Do not stack items on it. Doing so can prevent proper airflow and affect operation.

The maximum ambient temperature during operation is 40°C or 104°F.

The power connection must have a safe electrical distribution system and provide overcurrent protection.

The power supply unit has a ground leakage current of 3.5mA. The design of the electrical distribution system must take into consideration the total ground leakage current from all the power supplies in all the units.

Any loss, corruption, or destruction of data while using a Seagate hard drive or a hard drive system is the sole responsibility of the user. Under no circumstances will Seagate be held liable for the recovery or restoration of this data. To help prevent the loss of your data, Seagate highly recommends that you keep TWO copies of your data: one copy on your Personal Cloud, and a second copy on one of the following:

Direct-attached storage (DAS) Another NAS device Cloud storage Some form of removable storage or archival media

Important info: 1GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes. 1TB = 1,000,000,000,000 bytes. After the drive is formatted, the available storage capacity varies depending on your operating environment (typically 10%-15% less).
