6. Specify when you want backups to occur.
For example, if you want backups to occur every day, select
Daily
from the
Recurrence
list. If you want backups to occur once a week, select the day of the
week from the
Recurrence
list. Then select the time.
If you don’t want backups to occur automatically, select
Not Scheduled
from the
Recurrence
list. Backups will occur only when you start one manually (as
described in
“Manually backing up your disk”
).
Notes:
l
Only four backups of each protected disk or partition are saved on the
storage system, so if you back up your disk every day, you’ll be able to
recover data from only the last four days. If you back up your disk once a
week, you’ll be able to recover data from four weeks ago, but the most
recent backup might be as many as six days old.
l
Although this product is specifically designed to perform backups without
affecting your other computer activities, you might want to schedule backups
for a time when they’ll have the least impact on your system, like during
lunch or after business hours (if you leave your computer running overnight).
If you’re protecting multiple disks or partitions, it is
recommended that you schedule each backup to occur at a different time.
