DavidJames said: I'm running 2.1.2 of Pogoplug Drive on Windows. On the Settings page, what is multi-drive mode and where would I find it documented? Thanks

Single Drive vs. Multiple Drive View

Multiple Drive View

If you select Enable multi-drive mode, this means that once you have logged in, you will see multiple drive assignments (i.e. drive P:) that represent each of the drives attached to your Pogoplug enabled device. You will also see a drive assignment that represents all files shared with the email address you have used to authenticate.

Single Drive View

If you have not selected Enable multi-drive mode in the Pogoplug preferences and login, a navigation window will appear showing you the contents of the P: drive on your computer. The system will default to assigning the letter P to your Pogoplug enabled device. However, if this drive letter is already in use, the system will choose the next drive letter available.

This drive is the virtual drive representing the Pogoplug enabled device and all drives attached to it. You will also see the drives shared with the email address you have used to authenticate the account in the folder Files shared with me.

Isn't it supposed to also map/mount drives to the desktop locally?

So I am mistaken that I am supposed to get ICONS on the desktop as well? Sure are Utubes showing those icons should populate on the desktop.

@MartinL - your drives will show up as though they were locally attached drives - which on a Mac means you should be seeing (in multidrive move) a few Pogoplug icons on your desktop with the names of your drives. Brandon is correct that on a PC it don't work that way - can you point us to the youtube video, btw? I just want to make sure it's still accurate - there have been a lot of changes to the system over the past year!

@Kenneth - multidrive mode is in the drive application settings, not the web settings page. In the drive app click the Pogoplug icon and select preferences - there is a settings tab there, with the checkbox for multi-drive.
