Iomega And Quantum Tackle Backup

GoVault Backup And Restore

Quantum calls its backups “protection plans,” as it expects them to run on a regular basis. The software is very easy to use, but the backup is performed differently than on the Iomega REV 120. Quantum utilizes a technology that is called de-duplication. It is meant to avoid storing files redundantly, hence increasing the available backup capacity by only saving changes to files it recognizes, and storing a reference to the original file. Different from incremental backups, this technology doesn’t save the changed files, but just the changed blocks.
