Restore to Default

The Restore to Default area allows the Administrator to perform a restore on the My Cloud

device.

Perform one of the following options to restore your system:



System Only: Reverts system settings to their default values, but retains user data and

shares.



Quick Restore: Reverts all settings to their default values, erases all user data and

shares, and retains default shares. Quick Restore creates a new file table on the device,

but does not fully overwrite or erase the drive, so data recovery programs can be used

to restore user data and shares.



Full Restore: Reverts all settings to their default values, deletes all user data and shares

permanently, and retains default shares. Data recovery programs cannot be used to

restore data; all user data and shares, with the exception of the default shares, are

permanently deleted.

Important: Be

fore doing a factory restore or a system update, you may choose to

save your device’s current configuration. At a later time, you can import a

previously saved configuration. Keep in mind that importing a

configuration after restoring factory defaults does not restore shares or

users. See “Saving a Configuration File” on page 88,” to create or restore

a configuration file.

Note: To erase all of the data on your device, see “Format Disk” on page 89.
