3.7 Backup to various places
Acronis True Image Home 2011 Netbook Edition offers you flexibility in choosing destinations for
your backups. You can save full, incremental and differential backup versions to different places
including a network share, CD/DVD, USB stick, as well as any local internal or external hard drive.
You can save backup versions to different destinations by changing the backup destination when
editing the settings of a selected backup. For example, after you save the initial full backup to an
external USB hard drive, you can change the backup destination to a USB stick by editing the backup
settings. The subsequent incremental or differential backups will be written to the USB stick.
You cannot use FTP servers as one of the places for storing a part of backup versions belonging to the same
backup "chain".
One more useful aspect of this feature is the ability to split backups "on-the-fly". Suppose you
perform a backup to a hard disk and in the middle of the backup process Acronis True Image Home
2011 Netbook Edition finds out that the disk to which you are backing up, does not have sufficient
free space for completing the backup. The program displays a message warning you that the disk is
full.
