Backing up Important Files on this Computer
Your HP Media Vault is bundled with NTI Shadow software. NTI Shadow is
an easy-to-use application that lets you run automatic backups for the
important files and folders on your computer. You can back up any data you
want, including photo, music, video, and financial files. Using NTI Shadow
does not disturb your computer use because it works transparently in the
background.
NTI Shadow offers two ways to back up folders on your computer.
Simple Backup—Select this option to backup selected folders and their
•
sub-folders on this computer every time you make change to their
contents.
Custom Backup—Select this option if you want greater control over the
•
folders or files that you backup. Likewise, you can choose to backup your
selections every time they change or schedule a specific time for backups.
