GFI has released a fully functional free version of their backup software. This software works great compared to NT backup and you can even backup to a remote location such as an FTP site. The greatest thing about the backups is that it uses ZIP files for the backup files as opposed to a proprietary file. This means you can restore your backup files anywhere from any machine.
GFI note:
To assist home PC users in these troubled economic times and to help them understand the importance of data backups, GFI Software is offering for free its newly-developed backup and recovery software GFI Backup 2009.
GFI Backup 2009 will allow all home PC users to keep regular and updated copies of their precious memories in the form of pictures, video, and other files and safeguard their data in case something goes wrong.
Loss of data for individuals can be heartbreaking as memories, personal documents and important files are lost due to hard disk failure or a virus attack. With this free software, we are assisting people to be better prepared, especially when they are trying to cut costs wherever possible. Because we care!
GFI Backup 2009 is an easy-to-use backup and recovery software solution that allows users to backup all their important files and, when-needed, recover the data within minutes using the product’s wizard-driven interface. GFI Backup 2009 does not use a proprietary format; all data is saved to common ZIP files. This makes it easy to restore data to a computer that may not have GFI Backup installed on it.
Data can be stored on virtually any storage device available such as internal or external hard disks, on local area network (LAN) locations, CD/DVD media, removable media devices (USB sticks, memory sticks, flash memory, floppy disks, ZIP disks, JAZ, etc.) and remote locations using FTP with upload auto-resume. Data can also be protected with military-strength 256-bit AES strong encryption.
