Optionally all data can be AES algorithm-encrypted.The main advantage of Disk Drill over other similar apps is that it stores in truly standard formats. All files may be compressed in gzip, either in toto or separated by subfolders as zip files. The original directory structure remains unchanged beneath these folders. The original drives (C, D, etc.) appear as subdirectories LwC, LwD, etc. Additional criteria are the selection by file type, file age, and file name filter. But the user can exclude or include any subdirectories from or in the backup by selection or a filter. All subfolders are included automatically. The selection of the files to be backed up is made on a by-folder basis. You can configure and store as many backup tasks as you wish. Personal Backup saves personal data to any destination folder located on a local fixed or removable drive, Windows network server, or an FTP server.
