24 Using the Toshiba Backup software For Backup tasks: ❖ The Source device is the storage device containing the files you want to back up. ❖ The Destination device is the storage device where you want to store the backup copies. ❖ You can designate any storage device connected to your computer (including hard drives, solid state drives, and flash media) as either the source or the destination device. For example, you can back up your computer's internal storage drive to the Toshiba external drive or vice-versa, or you can back up data on another external storage drive to a thumb drive.

For Sync tasks: ❖ Any two storage devices connected to your computer can be synchronized. The devices you are synchronizing can be internal or external devices. ❖ Because the Toshiba Sync software is installed on the Toshiba external drive, that drive must be connected to the computer even if you do not designate it as one of the devices to be synchronized. ❖ You can synchronize two folders, rather than all of the data on two devices.

Using the Toshiba Backup software
For Backup tasks:
❖
The
Source
device is the storage device containing the files you
want to back up.
❖
The
Destination
device is the storage device where you want to
store the backup copies.
❖
You can designate any storage device connected to your
computer (including hard drives, solid state drives, and flash
media) as either the source or the destination device. For
example, you can back up your computer’s internal storage
drive to the Toshiba external drive or vice-versa, or you can
back up data on another external storage drive to a thumb drive.

❖
The storage devices you designate can be internal or external
devices.
❖
Because the Toshiba Backup software is installed on the
Toshiba external drive, that drive must be connected to the
computer even if you do not designate it as the source or
destination device.
For Sync tasks:
❖
Any two storage devices connected to your computer can be
synchronized. The devices you are synchronizing can be
internal or external devices.
❖
Because the Toshiba Sync software is installed on the Toshiba
external drive, that drive must be connected to the computer
even if you do not designate it as one of the devices to be
synchronized.
❖
You can synchronize two folders, rather than all of the data on
two devices.
