Changing the password in Sdrive
Sdrive gives you the option to change your Seagate Access password. However, changing your Seagate
Access password in Sdrive does not update your password on the Personal Cloud. Therefore, if you only
update your password on Sdrive, you must log into your Personal Cloud with the old password.
It is highly recommended that you manage both passwords on your Personal Cloud on the home network.
For further information regarding Seagate Access and Sdrive, see the Seagate Access for Personal Cloud User
Manual.
