Thinking about making the move to Suite Storage? Great choice! To help you out, we've put together a step-by-step guide that walks you through the process.
💡Check out these 5 critical tips for a smooth media migration.
Step 1: Run a Speed Test
First things first - you'll want to run a speed test to get a gauge on your upload speed. This will give you an idea of how fast your data can move.
Step 2: Calculate your Bandwith to Estimate the Transfer Time
Now that you know how fast your internet is, let's estimate how long the transfer will take. Use the "Download/Upload Time Calculator" from this bandwith calculator to get a rough idea of the upload time.
Step 3: Drag and Drop Files onto Suite Storage
Open Finder (Mac) or File Explorer (Windows) and locate the Suite drive. Then simply drag and drop your files from your current storage platform or hard drive onto the Suite drive.
Step 4: Monitor Upload Progress and Verify Completion
Keep an eye on the upload status through the Suite application - It's your source of truth and once the transfer is complete, the status will display as "Connected." You can monitor the speed of the transfer using Activity Monitor (Mac) or Task Manager (Windows)
