How To Backup Your Data Using GlobalDrive

Concerned about the impact on your business and your life by losing your computer or a hard disk drive?

Making backups of your crucial data - or your entire computer - and saving them on GlobalDrive couldn't be easier!

There's three different ways to backup with GlobalDrive!
Concerned that your backup data is protected?  The Safety And Security Of Your Backups


1.  Use Our Virtual Disk Drive's Backup Feature

First, using our "Virtual Disk Drive" program (it's free!), login to your account.

Then use our Virtual Disk Drive's built-in backup feature to backup any files, directories, or registry keys on your computer. You can even set up schedules so you never have to worry about data loss again. Global Drive allows you to create multiple backup jobs, each containing different sets of data.  And each one can be scheduled differently!

2.  Use Your Favorite Backup Product And Direct The Output To Your GlobalDrive Account

Since GlobalDrive's virtual disk drive works like any other disk drive on your computer, you can also use your favorite backup software such as Windows Backup:
  1. Ensure your GlobalDrive Virtual Disk Drive is connected to GlobalDrive; and
  2. Start your backup product; and
  3. Direct the output file (the backup "set") to your GlobalDrive Virtual Disk Drive.
That's it!  Now kick back and let us do the work.  If the worst comes to pass, we've got you covered!

3.  Use Your Favorite Backup Product And Upload The Output To Us

If you already have reliable backup procedures in-place, you can upload the output of those backup runs - either using our Virtual Disk Drive or our Web Site - to your GlobalDrive account, where they'll be safe and ready, should you need them!
