1. Import photos and videos to a shared folder on the NAS. There are three
approaches you can upload photos and videos to the NAS: 1) Install Qfinder on
your PC or Mac, set up a network drive and upload files to your preferred shared
folders. For details on setting up a network drive, please check the chapter on
Connecting to NAS Shared Folders ; 2) Click "Shared Photos" or "Private
Collection" on the left panel and click "Import" on the main menu to import photos or
videos from the local PC. A new shared folder named with the date that files are
uploaded will be created on the Turbo NAS to store your uploaded files (for "Shared
Photos", this newly created shared folder is located under the "Multimedia" folder;
for "Private Collection", this shared folder is located under the "/home" folder.) A
corresponding album will be created under "Album" as well; and 3) Switch to the
folder view browsing mode and drag and drop photos and videos to a preferred
folder. Note that with the first and third approach, you can choose which folder on
the NAS that you would like to upload photos and videos into.
