This means that at any time it may become infected with a malware that can damage data stored on your hard drive. There are two main technologies used for HDD backup: files-based copying and image-based (also called sector-based, drive-based, or snapshot) copying. Our software supports both, and guarantees that in case of a data loss event, you will be able to restore your data quickly and error free. Comparing Files-Based and Image-Based BackupHere’s a brief comparison of two approaches to hard disk backup:
It lets you create backup tasks consisting of separate files and folders and enables performing differential backup and other optimization schemes (where each execution of the task backs up only those data that appeared or changed since the previous one). The disadvantage of files-based approach is that there are system files and data that are locked by OS or not accessible on this level, and therefore can’t be backed up.
This technology allows creating backups of operating system, drive boot records and other data. Through disk imaging you can back up the entire hard drive, or even clone it. However, it requires a lot of disk space and works relatively slowly. Backup your HDD with Handy Backup and protect your data from all risks!
