Backup Management
Using the Backup Management feature
(For iPhone, iPad, and Android devices only.)
You can back up the files on the SD Card or local device to one of
the four user directories: Default, Owner1, Owner2, or Owner3. The
backup is an incremental backup.
You can back up the SD card manually or use the automatic backup
function. Local devices must be backed up manually.
If the size of the backup files are larger than the available space on
the Canvio AeroCast Wireless Hard Drive’s internal storage, you will
see a warning message before the backup process begins.

local device will be backed up to the selected user directory.
