The “farther” you store the archive from the original folders, the safer it will be in case of data damage. For example, saving the archive to another hard disk will protect your data if the primary disk is damaged. Data saved to a network disk, ftp-server or removable media will survive even if all your local hard disks are down. You can also use Acronis Secure Zone (see details in 3.3 Acronis Secure Zone) for storing backups. In that case, you need not provide the file name. You will need DVD UDF recording software installed for burning images on DVD disks. Examples of this software are Roxio DirectCD or Ahead InCD. An FTP server must allow passive mode for file transfers. To enable data recovery directly from FTP server split the archive to files no more than 2 Gb in size.
9. Click Next. 10. Select whether you want to create a full, incremental or differential backup. If you have not backed up the selected files/folders yet, or the full archive seems too old to append incremental changes to it, choose full backup. Otherwise it is recommended that you create an incremental or differential backup (see 3.2 Full, incremental and differential backup).
