Archiving files
Archive is another type of backup you can do with Retrospect.
Note that using this function will permanently remove files from
the source drive and place them on the destination drive. If your
destination drive is lost or damaged, you will have lost your only
copy of these files.
Can I do other types of backup?
3
Yes. Using Retrospect, you can also create a script to back up
multiple revisions of each file or to back up multiple drives or
folders to a single backup set. This is the second type of backup
you can create and customize. To access files contained in the
backup set, use the Retrospect software.
Note for Windows Users: the drive's factory format (FAT32) will
limit the size of any backup created using Retrospect backup
format (not duplicate format) to 4GB. If you are running Windows
2000 or XP, you can re-format your drive to the NTFS format,
allowing any backup file to be only limited by the size of your
hard drive. Macintosh users are required to format the drive to
the Macintosh OS Extended format for use with the Maxtor
OneTouch feature or Retrospect software. Refer to the User's
Guide (Macintosh) and Retrospect Help system (Windows) for
details on formatting your drive.
