The NVS1501 allows a user to copy a memory card to both the NVS1501 hard
drive and to an USB external hard drive at the same time, making two copies of
data in a single operation. The NVS1501 provides “Multi-copy” and “Sync”
functions to make backup more reliable. Users can also choose to copy from
an external USB device (USB HDD / USB Card Reader) to the NVS1501 internal
hard drive.
Reference
● The “MCopy/Sync” is possible only when the capacity of the USB external
hard drive is more than 128GB.
● The wall power adapter should be connected to both the NVS1501 and the
USB external hard drive. The USB power supplied by the NVS1501 may not be
enough to run an external USB hard drive.
2. When the USB drive capacity is less than 128GB
If the drive capacity is less than 128GB,
this capacity will be detected and only the
Copy menu option will be displayed.
The NVS1501 can copy data from an external
USB hard drive or from a USB card reader to
the internal hard drive.
For details, see chapter 11.
3. When the USB drive capacity is more than 128GB
If the drive capacity is more than 128GB,
a user can choose between “Copy from USB
device” or “Multi-copy/Sync” to a USB device.
For details on copy, see chapter 11.
For details on “MCopy/Sync”, see
chapters 14 and 15.
