Re: Anyone backing up their files online?

2011-02-10 by Michael

When making your initial online backup, you can greatly reduce the time required if you adjust your computer's power settings so it does not go into "Slumber" mode until the 1st backup is completed. Also, you can sync between computers very easily using Microsoft's Live Mesh service which allows individual files or folders to be synced between boxes and/or to a small free storage on their cloud. This is good for syncing My Documents, music, etc. between boxes.

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
