Backing up (Windows PC)

The WD Sentinel backup is based upon block level de-duplication, a process that
backs up data without unnecessarily backing up the same data more than once.
This powerful process uses less network traffic for execution, provides a full back-up
at each backup time (although it behaves as if it is incremental), and by executing
de-duplication across all client computers, the storage capacity requirements are
significantly reduced. Backup becomes an automatic process for a computer once
you install Connector software on it. With Connector software installed, all volumes
and all NTFS data on that computer are backed up.
