Backup to Blu-ray

Blu-Ray discs are the most advanced optical media used today. As affordability of burning devices increases, the software that can exploit them and backup data to Blu-ray becomes more and more attractive for both home users and enterprises. Practically, using Blu-rays for backup is even more convenient than backing up online – and the popularity of this method continues to grow with each day.

Blu-rays are created through the use of a short wavelength laser and may consist of up to 16 layers containing 25 GB each. Since each such layer is six times more capacious than layers used in DVDs, Blu-rays appear to be perfect media to store data on. Handy Backup features an integrated disc burning module that allows backing up to Blu-ray any amount of user data.

Benefits of Backing up to Blu-ray

Recording backups to Blu-ray disks with Handy Backup is easy for users of any computer expertise. All tasks are created with the help of a comprehensible Task Wizard which guides through all steps. Here are the main features related to backing up to Blu-ray:

• Disc spanning. If a single disc is not enough to fit all important data (e.g. when you are creating a complete disk image backup), Handy Backup splits the information across several media. All you need is to change the disc when you are prompted to do so.


• Blu-ray backup verification. To ensure that files are properly secured, Handy Backup has an option to verify backups recorded to Blu-ray, CD or DVD.


• Scheduling. With Handy Backup you can make your backups automatic, started on any schedule convenient for you. Since a single Blu-ray is usually enough for most backups, you don't have to replace it with a new disc as often as in case of using CD/DVD.

Storing backup to Blu-ray is more profitable in terms of time and costs, as compared to multiple CD or DVD discs. It is also safer to store and to transport, as data backup on a Blu-Ray is less subject to damage than one on a pack of CD or DVD disks.

Back up your valuable files to Blu-ray discs – easily, quickly and reliably!
