PushButton Backup
PushButton Backup is a faster, easier way to run routine data
backups. Rather than having to launch a backup utility and set
cumbersome parameters every time you want to backup your
files, all you need to do is press the PushButton on your Drive.
Not only does PushButton Backup make backups simpler and
more convenient, but since you’re backing up your data to a
high-performance hard drive—as opposed to say, tape or opti-
cal media—backups are also much faster.
PushButton Backup and Redemption
Your PushButton Drive came bundled with the Redemption data
backup and restore application. Redemption is the software that
runs the backups initiated via the PushButton. While PushButton
Backup will most likely suffice for your routine backup needs,
Redemption also offers a host of other powerful tools to help
you manage the data on your PushButton Drive. These features
are explained on the following pages.
