Wuala is easy to configure using your LaCie professional server's Dashboard. The built-in LaCie tab will help you setup and access your Wuala account at any time. While every new Wuala user receives 2GB of free storage, you can take advantage of an additional 100GB by entering your server's promotional code. You may enter the code during the initial Wuala setup or wait until later. Your promotional code can be found on the Quick Install Guide or on a Flyer.

Please consider the following before starting the Wuala setup:

• You may enter the Wuala promotional code during the setup or wait until after the account has been created. The instructions below will provide details for both.
• All new users receive 2GB of free storage which would allow you to test some of Wuala's features before entering the code. Your three months of 100GB begins once you have registered the code.
• An existing Wuala account may be used with your LaCie professional server. During the setup, you will be prompted to enter an active Login and Password or to create a new account.
• The promotional code may be used with an existing account.
• In most instances, you will be prompted to reboot the server to complete the installation.
• Since Wuala is online storage, your LaCie professional server must have access to the Internet.
