3.6.9. Dashboard: Download

Save .torrent ﬁles directly onto MyShare with the Download page.

Browse your computer for .torrent ﬁles to upload or save them from

another location (network server, network device, Internet, etc). For

a change to take effect, select APPLY at the bottom of the main area

of the Dashboard.

IMPORTANT INFO: Due to their small size and efﬁcient use of

bandwidth, torrents are very popular for downloading large ﬁles.

Unfortunately, .torrent has become the format of choice for many

illegal or pirated ﬁles. While we hope that all customers enjoy LaCie

products such as the Wireless Space, the company does not encour-

age anyone to engage in illegal acts. LaCie is not responsible for

any acts of piracy or theft should someone choose to download,

upload, read, and/or write illegal ﬁles on or from one of its products.

ings on either function.

that you cannot change the target share for .torrent down-

loads.
