Dated Copy

  • In PurrfectBackup menu select “Dated Copy”
  • PurrfectBackup will ask you to connect source disk i.e. your SD Card reader
  • The system will automatically detect your source device once plugged in and asks you to plug in destination drive i.e. you SSD or Hard Drive

If multiple partitions exist, select the one containing your data

  • Review the summary screen showing source and destination

for large backups report generation can take several minutes. Reports are available on WebUI

  • Select Option if you want to skip report generation after copy is completed,
  • Press “Yes/No” to begin the backup
  • PurrfectBackup Does disk space check
    • Shows amount of data to be copied (minus which already exists)
    • Disk space left in destination i.e. your hard disk / SSD
  • Monitor the progress bar during copying
  • When complete, check the success message and reports

Tip: Just Copy, use when you want to quickly offload your SD Card
