## Mount the filer
On Mac, you would need to install [FUSE for macOS](https://osxfuse.github.io/)
```
weed mount -dir some_directory
```
After mounting, the directory will act just as a local directory.
The "weed mount" is well optimized. Only the file metadata is stored on filer server. The actual file contents are all read from and write to directly the volume servers.
## Upgrading from previous Filer storage
Upgrading is complicated since the storage format is very different.
