So for example if you take a file out of the folder, that is updated in the duplicate as well. It also syncs the folder with the duplicate. What it does is automatically duplicate the folder and its contents over to another drive.
You need at least 2 drives on your server to enable folder duplication. The Properties window appears and under the General tab we want to mark the box next to Enable Folder Duplication. Just right-click the folder and select Properties. In this example we created a Documents shared folder and want to enable Folder Duplication and change user access.
We can also go back and change the properties and user access to the folders at any time.

Full – The user can view, add.modify, and delete files in the shared folder.Next we need to select the type of access each user will have for the new folder. In this example…these files are going to be large video files, and we don’t need to create a duplicate. It will take twice as much space on the total storage of your server and can take a while for the process to complete. With it enabled, it duplicates the folder and files contained in it across multiple drives on the server. You’ll need to decide if you want to enable folder duplication or not. Open Windows Home Server Console and under Shared Folders click Add from the toolbar or right-click an empty area in Shared Folders and select Add from the context menu.Įither way it will pop up the Add a Shared Folder wizard where you type in the name for the folder and give it a description if you want to. Which ever method you use, it’ll open the Shared Folders directory and you can begin browsing through your data.Īdding a new folder is pretty straight-forward.
