They have differential, incremental, and full backups. I have it set to incremental since it will only update the last changes...saving time and disk space. It didn't take long at all for my drive that takes up 3TB+...maybe less than 3-5 minutes. :)

It uses Acronis True Image, which has been around for a long time and works very well.

I just ordered 2 of these. It's a USB stick that can be inserted into a USB A on one side and a USB C on the other. I plan to use one as a linux drive so that I can dual-boot linux/Windows on my PC again. :)

After reading up on them, I've found out that it has software for auto backups, encypt files/folders, and more via software that you can download. The other drive will be for auto backups with encryption.

EDIT: On top of this, my sister just gave me a 2GB USB stick because she didn't need it.  ;D

At my job, they post videos like that for us to have to view and take tests. However, they don't update their hardware and software! But the expect use to be vigilant on such things. :o

Keeping your hardware and software is the first line of defense against hackers, etc.  >:(

Please sign the petition to help keep our private data safer.

And, please read this part near the bottom: What specific attacks on encryption are underway right now?

So far, the UK is backing down, at least for now.
