Chapter 4. Getting to know Seagate BlackArmor Backup 4.1 BlackArmor One-Click Protection BlackArmor One-Click Protection tool allows you to begin protecting your computer as soon as you install Seagate BlackArmor Backup. During the first start of the just installed Seagate BlackArmor Backup, the program will offer you to protect your computer by immediately backing up its system volume and Master Boot Record (MBR) as well as scheduling subsequent full backups. The BlackArmor One-Click Protection tool performs only full backups of the system volume; scheduling an incremental or differential backup is not possible. In addition, it does not support backup of drives protected by BitLocker Drive Encryption in Windows Vista. On the first run of the One-Click Protection wizard after the NAS License Server creates the folder ―Backups‖ on the NAS share "Public", if it did not exist before, and sets it as a destination for "One-Click Protection". The name of the backup is generated from the hostname of the machine user is to back up. Seagate BlackArmor Backup will take stock of your computer's configuration and then offer the optimum destination for backups. For this purpose the program will use the following algorithm: 1) First of all the program estimates the space required for operation of the One-Click Protection tool. As the average compression ratio when backing up data into tib files is 2:1, you can use this value as a guide. Let's say your system partition has 20GB of programs and data. Under normal conditions, that will compress down to approximately 10GB and the disk space required for operation of the One-Click Protection tool might amount to 10GB plus 250 MB for temporary files. 2) When your machine has only one hard drive: Copyright (c) 2000-2009 Acronis.
