Editing Your Sync Set Removing Folders from your Sync Set. 1. Click the Sync tab. You will see the following:

RAID Settings By default, your OneTouch III Turbo Edition is configured as a striped (RAID 0) volume. In this configuration, the OneTouch III software combines the capacity of both enclosed hard drives – giving you one large, fast disk. However, if one drive fails, you will lose all data stored. To protect your data, you can mirror (RAID 1) the drives in your OneTouch III Turbo Edition. This configuration provides you with a backup of your data. In the event of a single disk failure, your data is secured on the second drive. The only drawback to a RAID 1 is the loss of disk space. A RAID 1 configuration will decrease the overall capacity of your OneTouch III Turbo Edition by 50%. 1. Launch the OneTouch Manager and click on the Settings button.

Click the minus (-) button located in the lower left corner. or If you wish to reverse your choice, click Revert to add the folder back to your Sync Set. 2.

PAGE 44

MAXTOR ONETOUCH III TURBO EDITION WINDOWS INSTALLATION Using the OneTouch III Retrospect Express HD Understanding Restore Points The first step to backing your files is to create a restore point. A restore point is simply a snapshot of your files based on a specific date in time. It contains all the files and folders you select to back up, as they exist at the time that you back up. A restore point can be anything from a few files and folders to every file on your computer. Each time you back up, Retrospect Express HD adds a new restore point to your backup drive; thereby preserving copies of backed-up files and folders from multiple points in time. If there is not enough free disk space to add a new restore point, Retrospect Express HD automatically deletes older restore points to make room for new ones.

Opening Retrospect Express HD You can open Retrospect Express HD from either the Start Menu: – Start ➔ Programs ➔ EMC Retrospect ➔ Retrospect Express HD 1.1 From the System Tray

or – Right-click the red Retrospect Express HD icon.

You can restore individual ﬁles and folders from any restore point back to your computer. You can also restore your entire computer to its state at the time a restore point was created.

Running an Immediate Backup Though comprehensive backups can be scheduled to run at predetermined times, you can launch them at any time by doing one of the following:

Once you set up a backup, you can start it at any time by pressing the button on your Maxtor OneTouch III. You can also schedule backups to take place automatically on speciﬁc days of the week.

– Press the OneTouch button - this will launch your backup immediately

In the “Restoring your computer” section, later in this chapter, we will show you how to restore all the ﬁles on your computer in the event that your system is damaged or completely erased.

– Open Retrospect Express HD and click Back up now.

PAGE 45

– Right-click on the Retrospect icon located in the System Tray and select Back up now from the pop-up menu.

MAXTOR ONETOUCH III TURBO EDITION WINDOWS INSTALLATION Comprehensive Backups vs. Duplicates Retrospect Express HD can perform both backups and duplicates. Select “Comprehensive Backup” to set up or modify your backup settings. Select “Duplicate” to set up or modify your duplicate settings. – Comprehensive Backup: Backing up your computer on a regular basis is the best way to protect your files. When you back up, Retrospect Express HD creates a restore point and saves it on your Maxtor drive. A restore point contains all the files and folders you selected to back up, as they existed at the time of the backup. Each time you back up, Retrospect Express HD adds a new restore point to the drive; thereby preserving copies of backed up files and folders from multiple points in time. If there is not enough free disk space to add a new restore point, Retrospect Express HD automatically deletes older restore points to make room for the new one. You can restore individual files and folders from any restore point back to your computer. You can also restore your entire computer to its state at the time a restore point was created. Once you set up a backup, you can initiate it at any time by pressing the OneTouch button on your Maxtor drive. You can also schedule backups to run automatically on specified days of the week.

Duplicates are saved in the standard Windows file format, so you can view and interact with them just like any other file (using Windows Explorer, for example). Once you set up a duplicate, you can initiate it at any time by pressing the OneTouch button on your Maxtor drive. You cannot schedule duplicates to run automatically. Comprehensive Backups There are three (3) types of comprehensive backups: – My Entire Computer – Let me choose specific files and folders – Let me choose files by type. Comprehensive Backups - My Entire Computer This option provides you with the capability to backup your entire PC to a Restore Point. This is the default comprehensive backup setting. In the future, after using other Comprehensive Backup/Duplicate options, you may return to using this option. Here is its setup procedure: 1. Launch Retrospect Express HD.

2. The main menu opens.

– Duplicate: When you duplicate, Retrospect Express HD copies the selected files and folders from your computer to the “Retrospect Duplicates” folder on your Maxtor drive. Each time you duplicate, Retrospect Express HD replaces the entire contents of “Retrospect Duplicates”. The only files and folders available are those from the most recent duplicate. If you modified a file since the last duplicate, the older version will be lost. If you deleted a file from your computer, it will be deleted from your Maxtor drive when you duplicate.
