About this product Product Information Create backup of your data as well as your operating system in the high capacity Seagate STBDARK that safeguards it even during a system failure or when the computer crashes.
For whatever reason, the supplied USB cable is unusually short, but you can replace it with any standard mini-USB cable. The cable hardwired to the dock, meanwhile, is a two-headed model. That lets it get the proper amount of power from some laptop ports, but it also means that it might require you to sacrifice two ports rather than one. The initial backup takes a while--a little over 2 hours in our tests--and if you have a PC loaded up with lots of files, it will take even longer.
To be clear, the Replica is not for Macs, which have their own built-in Time Machine software for backing up your system to a standard, Mac-formatted external hard drive. However, after you do the initial full-image backup, the Replica backs up your PC incrementally as files are added, deleted, or altered. You can leave the Replica connected to your machine or disconnect it and then plug it in when you're ready for another backup. If you're attempting to back up multiple PCs, the drive predetermines whether you have room to back up the second PC and won't start the backup process unless you do.
If your hard drive should crash, you can restore your system easily enough by running Seagate's restore utility and connecting the Replica to your system. Seagate's software boots directly off the CD drive, so it should work even if your PC's hard drive is scrambled.
It took just over an hour to restore the system we tested. Replace the destroyed disk drive with a new disk drive. Turn your PC on, and select from the displayed screen the point in time to which you want to restore, and Replica will restore your entire PC disk to exactly like it was at that time.
To recover your entire PC backup for any reason that does not require a new hard disk drive, such as a corrupt file system table, follow the same simple steps but without replacing the PC hard disk. Replica comes with the PC Recovery CD, and a recovery takes only a few hours rather than the few days it could take to do it yourself or to send it out to be worked on.
If my computer is destroyed can I restore to a new computer? You can recover your entire PC backup from Replica onto a replacement PC of the exact same make and model in the case of catastrophes like a destroyed PC or a lost or stolen notebook. It is important to note that all of the operating system files that are backed up on your Replica are those used by your previous PC.
If the replacement PC is not the exact same make and model as your lost PC, the recovered system files may not allow the new PC to run properly. However, you can recover any files and folders from your Replica to a different PC. Can I use Replica to move files from one computer to another? Yes, you can recover backed up files from one computer to another computer.
Replica is designed for continuous, transparent backup and easy recovery of files or an entire PC. Replica also provides for portability of backed up data to another PC, should you want to recover backed up files to a different PC. Replica only backs up all of the files on your PCs internal hard disk drives. If you want other files such as from a CD or DVD or external hard disk drive backed up, you must first copy those files to your PCs drive s. If I have an external disk drive, will Replica interfere with it?
Replica is a PC backup appliance that does not interfere with any other functions or operations of your computer system. Replica automatically and continuously backs up all internal disk drives on your PC. Replica does not backup any external USB or networked disk drives. What triggers the creation of a recovery point? Recovery points are made approximately every 24 hours.
If more than 24 hours have elapsed since Replica was last plugged into the current computer, then a Recovery point will begin right away. Will a new Recovery Point occur at the same time, every 24 hours? However if a Replica has been disconnected from a computer for more than 24 hours and then reconnected, a Recovery Point will be created immediately.
Are there certain file types that do not get continuously backed up? For instance, Microsoft Outlook. OST and. PST files only are backed up at the time Recovery Point s are created.
