Note that your first backup will likely be the longest (particularly if you have lots of data). After the first backup, however, only the files that have changed since your last backup need to be sent to the data center. With this smart technology, all backups after the initial backup will be quick and efficient often taking just a few minutes. Without this technology, your backups could take many hours or even days.

With Online Storage Restart Technology, you may stop or delay the backup at anytime if you need to use your computer. When you resume backing up, the software will pick up where you left off, continuing to send the previously unsent files.
