At this step you can specify various storage options.
You should select one of the storage methods. The following options are available.
Store each file as is. All files will be backed up "as is", i.e. without
compression and encryption.
ZIP each file. Each file will be compressed to a separate ZIP archive.
Note that the size of each individual compressed file should not exceed 4
Gb. If you backup onto DVD, the size of each individual compressed file should
not exceed 2 Gb.
You can specify password to create standard password-protected ZIP files. Note that Blowfish
encryption is not used in this case, but you will be able to extract data using any ZIP client.
Encrypt each file with blowfish.
Each file will be stored separately and your data will be protected using strong 128-bit
Blowfish encryption. This encryption is stronger than standard ZIP password protection,
however only Backup Platinum can restore files encrypted this way.
ZIP and encrypt each file.
This is a combination of two previous options. Each file will be compressed to a separate
ZIP archive and then encrypted with Blowfish.
Put all files into a single ZIP archive.
A single ZIP file with all your data will be created. Note that the whole archive size
should not exceed 4 Gb. If you backup onto DVD, the whole archive size should not exceed 2
Gb. If you use disc spanning to store data on several discs, a single ZIP file is created for
each span.
You can specify password to create standard password-protected ZIP file. Note that Blowfish
encryption is not used in this case, but you will be able to extract data using any ZIP client.
Put all files into a single encrypted ZIP archive.
This is similar to the previous option, but in addition the data is encrypted with Blowfish.
As a result, you will have a single file with compressed and encrypted data. If you use disc
spanning to store data on several discs, a single file is created for each span.
If you want to perform incremental backup adding only new and changed files every time, it is
not recommended to use last two options, because it is impossible to insert new data to an old
ZIP archive. So in this case, the backup will be fully rebuilt every time.
Advanced ZIP Options
Click the "Advanced Options..." button to specify advanced ZIP options.
This button is active only if you choose to create ZIP archives.
ZIP archive name.
Here you can specify the name for your ZIP archive, if you chose compression into a single
ZIP file. Note that single ZIP archive name is not changed automatically after you have
changed the item name. Also, the specified name is not used when backing up on a CD/DVD.
Compression quality.
Choose compression quality for your data. The higher is the compression quality, the more
time will be required to process the data, but the resulting ZIP file will be smaller.
Timestamp Settings
Store versions in subfolders using timestamps. Check this option if
you want the program to store different versions of backup data in different
subfolders of the destination folder. To adjust timestamp format settings,
click the "Timestamp Settings..." button.
Timestamp accuracy up to.
Here you specify amount of time that should pass between versions. For example, if you
choose accuracy up to day and run backup two times a day, the second copy will be saved over
the first one. However, if you run it again the next day, that copy will be placed in a new
subfolder.
Timestamp format
-
Keep all versions (do not delete old backups).
Select this if you want to keep all backups.
-
Keep only last...versions.
Choose the number of versions to keep. When a new version is created, the
oldest can be deleted to keep total number of versions up to specified value.
-
Keep old versions for a period of...
Set time period during which old backups will be kept.
