Different Types of Backups
Don’t misuse the word “Backup”
The process of backing up, refers to the copying
and archiving of computer data so it may be used
to restore the original after a data loss event.

Different Types of Backups
File Syncing
vs.
Full Backup

15. 15

Syncing
Creating two identical copies
that is updated both ways

16. 16
Different Types of Backups
What Happens
If a file or change is detected on drive A, drive B is updated.
If a file or change is detected on drive B, drive A is updated.
If you delete a file, both are deleted.

17. 17
Different Types of Backups
Mirroring
Creating two identical copies
that is only updated one way.

18. 18
Different Types of Backups
What Happens
We want our second drive to be the same bit for bit.
If the main drive fails, we swap and use the
mirrored drive until we rebuild a new one.

19. 19
Different Types of Backups
Copying
Selecting all files from one hard drive
and copying them to the other.

20. 20
Different Types of Backups
What Happens
There is no link. If you change something
on drive A, drive B never sees it.
Use this when you are giving away copies.

21. 21
Different Types of Backups
Full Backup
Create a compressed copy of every file;
deleted files, multiple changes to that file, every
file you ever created.

22. 22
Different Types of Backups
What Happens
This will require more storage than your original hard
drive and it can only be read or restored with software.
This is a perfect format for offsite backup.
