Advice for a smooth bulk upload

Lesson Summary

1. Issue with Upload Completion: An upload might show as 100% complete, but no playlists appear in DISCO. This indicates a problem.
2. Contacting Support: If no new playlists appear within a day, contact DISCO support.
3. Avoiding Folder Removal: Do not click the X or check mark next to the completion percentage. Removing folders from the uploader will prevent support from troubleshooting.
4. Force Completing Uploads: DISCO support can access the admin area to force complete the upload or identify any blocking issues.
5. Managing Large Uploads: Large uploads may progress slowly, especially with hundreds of gigabytes.
6. Maintaining Connection: Ensure continuous connection between your hard drive and DISCO.
7. Pausing for Movement: If moving locations, pause the upload before disconnecting the hard drive. Resume after reconnecting.
8. Preventing Sleep Mode: Confirm that your hard drive and computer do not enter sleep mode during uploads to avoid interruptions.
9. Monitoring Upload Progress: Regularly check upload progress but understand that significant uploads require considerable time.
