Mounted volume A volume that appears as a separate storage area in Mac OS X. The main hard
drive in your Mac is a mounted volume; when you plug in an external hard
drive, Mac OS X automatically mounts all visible, valid volumes on it. By
default, mounted volumes display on the Desktop and in the Finder window
sidebar. (You may change these options to not display all volumes.)
Restoration Restoration is the process of copying files from your backup to your active
Mac, after files on the computer have been lost, erased or damaged.
Source The device that contains the files to be copied. In a typical backup, this would
be your Mac's hard drive; in a restoration, it's the backup medium (for
example, an external hard disk or a DVD).
Synchronization Synchronization is the process of comparing two folders, volumes or disks, and
ensuring that both contain exactly the same files; any files changed on one side
are copied to the other. This is especially useful for ensuring that you have the
same files on two computers you work on, such as a desktop Mac and a laptop.
Volume A volume is a hard drive, a partition on a hard drive, a disk or partition on a
network, or a removable disk, such as a CD, DVD, iPod or memory stick. For
all intents and purposes, computers see all of these as volumes, which are the
same as hard drives.
