Features
Backup and sync via an email server:
· You can now backup and synchronize your files via an email server (POP3/IMAP4 and SMTP), e.g. Gmail, Yahoo!, etc. For example, you could synchronize your files with a friend or colleague via a dedicated shared email account. You could also sign up to a free email account and backup your files to it. There is no need to worry about spam - SyncBackPro can be configured to automatically delete all emails that are not used by SyncBackPro. There is also no need to worry about security because you can store your files using 256-bit AES encryption.
Backup directly to a CD/DVD:
· Now you can backup directly to CD or DVD (including Blu-Ray), with automatic disk spanning. There is no need to pre-format the CD/DVD, and compression does not need to be used for disk spanning.
Scripting:
· This powerful new feature allows you to configure how SyncBackPro works and runs profiles. For example, you could create a script that lets SyncBackPro backup to a database (or anything else you can access). Scripting can also be used to change how profiles run.
Unlimited number of files:
· SyncBackPro uses a database to store details of the files it is copying, instead of storing the information in RAM (memory). This means an unlimited number of files and folders can now be processed. SyncBackPro will use RAM for performance but will automatically and seamlessly switch to a database if memory is running low or the number of files reaches a threshold. Using a database will actually be significantly faster when the number of files is in the hundreds of thousands.
Automatic drive failure detection:
· Using S.M.A.R.T. technology, SyncBackPro can detect the impending failure of a hard drive. If a hard drive is going to fail (or has failed) then the log file will have details, and the profile status will indicate it. To use this feature your computers BIOS and hard drive must support S.M.A.R.T. (and it must also be enabled via the BIOS settings).
BZip2 compression:
· As well as supporting the industry standard Zip compression, and BWT compression, you can now also compress using BZip2. It compresses most files more effectively than more traditional gzip or Zip, but it is slower. If space is more of a concern than speed, then BZip2 may be the solution.
SFTP:
· As well as supporting traditional FTP and FTPS, SyncBackPro now also supports SFTP.
