Using FileBoost
FileBoost is a PROMISE proprietary technology that makes possible very rapid data transfers to and
from the NAS folder accessible on Member computers. This is a key feature of the VTrak system and is
especially useful when large amounts of data need to be copied and moved between folders mounted on
Member computers.
It is possible to perform the same operation using only Finder in Mac, but FileBoost greatly increases
data transfer performance to reduce time needed for completion. Again, the time savings is significant when
large quantities of data are routinely being moved from one Member folder to another.
