Automatic Location of Pre-Existing Backup Data in
Storage Location Box
Backup for Workgroups automatically scans your
local hard drives; looking for existing backup data. Please note that Backup for
Workgroups is only looking for its own, pre-existing backup data. It cannot read
backup data produced by other backup products. If any existing backup data is
found, it is displayed in the Storage Location list. If Backup for Workgroups
could not find any pre-existing backup data, then press the Add Path button and
specify the location that contains your pre-existing backup data.
If Storage Spans Drives, List All Drives
If you were using the drive spanning feature in
which your backup data was stored on multiple drives/locations, all of these
storage paths must be listed in the Storage Location list. Again, if this list
is incomplete, use the Add Path button to include the missing storage
locations.
Can Use Mirror Drives if Backup/Primary Storage is Unavailable
If your original backup
storage drives are not available and you have been using the mirror feature, you
can use the mirror drives in place of the missing primary storage drives. If
this is the case, simply substitute your mirror drives in place of your
original, primary storage drives.
