Backing up entire drives 83 How Offsite Copy works On Tuesday morning, you find that Monday's base recovery point has been successfully copied to drive A. At the end of the day, you unplug drive A and take it home for safe keeping. On Wednesday morning, you bring drive B to the office. You plug in drive B and Norton Ghost detects that drive B is an Offsite Copy destination. Norton Ghost then automatically begins copying Monday night's base recovery point and Tuesday night's incremental recovery point. At the end of the day Wednesday, you take drive B home and place it in a safe place with drive A. You now have multiple copies of recovery points stored at two separate, physical locations: your original recovery points stored on your backup destinations at the office, and copies of those same recovery points stored on your Offsite Copy destination drives. Your Offsite Copy destination drives are stored in a safe place at your home. The next morning, Thursday, you take drive A to the office and plug it in. Tuesday and Wednesday night's recovery points are then automatically copied to drive A. Note: Consider using the external drive naming feature that lets you provide a nickname, to each drive. Then place matching physical labels on each external drive to help you manage the task of swapping the drives. See "Using nicknames for external drives" on page 43.
