One Click DVD Backup

April 29, 2008: At this week’s Interop conference in Las Vegas, Storage Appliance Corporation has introduced a new DVD backup system that it says makes it easy for professionals to back up their PCs by simply inserting a DVD.

Aimed at small, medium and large businesses and dubbed Clickfree Office DVD Backup, the solution offers a simple way to save email, calendar, Internet, design and other productivity related files.

It supports over 200 file types including Microsoft Office and Adobe applications, and works by automatically searching for, and backing up files as soon as a disc is inserted in a PC’s DVD drive.

“Today, 85 to 90 percent of the population does not back up their PC,” said Ian Collins, president, Storage Appliance Corporation. “We hope the simplicity of our products will influence people to back up their data on a regular basis, significantly reducing the easily preventable devastation that comes from data loss.”

While not a centralised system, the software could no doubt prove attractive for those looking for a cheap, simple backup system for solitary machines.
