You may also save data,
copy data, move data and

9. Word of caution
While NetDrive is ideal for batch uploading, copying and
moving web pages within a server’s namespace, please bear in
mind that using Netdrive does not automatically carry and
update links between two or more items automatically nor does
it update a content’s properties (e.g. title, summary, related
items, etc.). In fact, one should always update file title &
description after upload using Plone web interface because
sometimes Netdrive would put description like "Error: may not
be a pdf file...“ when the file is actually OK.
Cut/copy/paste via web interface is much faster.
