5. Using Cloud Storage
This chapter explains how to set up and manage your Cloud Storage account so you can use 
it as a destination for your data backups. You can manage your Cloud Storage account from 
within Seagate
®
 Dashboard, or you can log into your account using a Web browser.
Note: 
The Cloud Storage service is only available in the Windows
®
 version of Seagate Dashboard.
About Cloud Storage
The Seagate Cloud Storage Service Powered by Nero is a secure, reliable place to store your 
backed-up data online. When you purchased your Seagate Backup Plus drive, you received 
a free 1-year subscription to the Cloud Storage service, along with 4 gigabytes of free 
storage. You can easily increase the amount of available storage, and extend your 
subscription beyond the initial year.
Note: 
Seagate Central does not support the Cloud Storage service.
When setting up a backup plan with the Protect feature, you can specify Cloud Storage as the 
destination for the data backups; then when Seagate Dashboard executes the backup plan, it 
will automatically upload your data files to your Cloud Storage account.
Setting up a Cloud Storage Account
To start backing up your files to Cloud Storage, you must first create a Cloud Storage 
account. To create a Cloud Storage account, do the following:
1.
Connect your Dashboard-enhanced Seagate drive to your computer.
