LinkStation Backup Settings
Disk Backup:
The
‘Disk Backup’
function
allows LinkStation’s data to be backed up to an
external USB Hard Drive. Backing up data is
important in the event of LinkStation becoming
damaged. Without a backup you risk losing data if a
catastrophe happens. The ‘
Disable
’ option turns off
the ability to backup.
Backup Frequency:
There are three options for
starting backups. The
‘Run Backup Immediately’
option makes LinkStation begin backing up instantly.
This is a one-time backup solution. The ‘
Run
Backup Daily at the Specifi ed Time
’ option makes
LinkStation
perform backups daily at a scheduled
time. The
‘Run Backup Every (DAY) at the
Specifi ed Time’
option makes LinkStation perform a backup at a scheduled time only once a week.
Specifi ed Time:
The ‘
Specifi ed Time
’ is the time that LinkStation will perform it’s backup if scheduled.
Overwrite Backup:
The ‘
Overwrite Backup
’ option specifi es whether LinkStation will create a new
backup everytime or whether it will overwrite every backup. If
‘Overwrite Backup’
is set to
‘Disable’
then a
new folder will be created on the USB Disk everytime a backup occurs If it is set to
‘Enable’
then there will
be only one backup on the USB Disk and it will continually be overwritten.
