Home Server Plus

Experience Level: Standard

Duplication Info for Windows Home Server enables the user to see which files have been duplicated to a second hard drive, via Windows Home Server’s Drive Extender technology.

Once it has installed, reopen the console and click on the Duplication Info tab.  You will find 2 windows inside the console under this tab.

The window on the left is your basic Windows Explorer type folder layout.  As you burrow down through the tree, a folders content will become displayed in the right window.  After you highlight a particular folder, you can click on the Explore option, which will open Windows Explorer.  “See” it Duplication Info and “touch” it in Windows Explorer.  If you do some maintenance in Explorer, you will have to click on the Refresh button to update Duplication Info. One item you will notice is that as you explore the folder tree, Duplication Info displays the physical disk location of each file.
