Your PC can access files from the TeraStation even when it’s not connected to the network if Offline Files are enabled.  

Offline Files are updated and saved on the computer when it’s online.  Offline Files work with Windows 2000, Windows 

XP Professional, Vista, and Windows 7.  Windows Me and XP Home Edition are not supported.
Configure your PC to use files offline as follows:

In the Web Admin interface, select [Shared Folders] - [Folder Setup].

Click [Disable offline files] to disable Offline Files.
