NTI DriveBackup! Delivers Fast, Low-Cost PC Backup, One-step Recovery

Wizard Interface Guides Storage, Protection of Active Hard Drive Partitions to CD or DVD;
Enables Up To 1GB Data to Be Stored on Single Bootable System Recovery CD Disc, 9.4GB on DVD

HANNOVER, Germany, March 12, 2003 – To help PC users protect operating systems, applications and files from viruses and hardware/software disasters, NewTech Infosystems, Inc. (NTI) introduced an enhanced version of NTI DriveBackup! this week at CeBIT, Hall 20; Booth C11. Using DriveBackup!’s advanced wizard interface and data compression capabilities, users can easily store up to 1GB of vital data on a single CD or up to 9.4GB on a single DVD disc. The software enables media spanning for multi-CD or DVD backup/recovery of the system’s complete hard drive.

“IT specialists understand how important it is to protect mission-critical data and how difficult it is to rebuild the operating system, applications, settings and work-in-progress,” said Bill Yao, President and CEO of NewTech Infosystems. “Whether the cause is virus corruption, a hard drive crash or because the computer was stolen, it can take hours or even days to recover all of the data ... and sometimes it can never be recovered. DriveBackup! was designed to make it fast, easy and economical for even novice users to protect their information from loss or corruption. When disaster does strike, the bootable emergency recovery CD or DVD enables the user to automatically restore all of the saved software and data.”

NTI DriveBackup!’s easy-to-use wizard takes a complete snapshot of designated partitions of the hard drive and backs the information up to a write-once or rewritable CD, DVD or other storage media. By creating a complete image of the data stored on the hard drive, partial or complete recovery is a one-step process. For complete volume recovery, the bootable emergency recovery disc automatically restores the system. For partial or file recovery, the user simply selects the target partition, initiates the recovery process and DriveBackup! does the rest.

NTI DriveBackup! features include:
- Broad storage device support -- Users can select virtually any backup storage solution, including CD-R/-RW, DVD +/- R/RW/RAM, internal/external/network hard drive, Zip, Jaz, USB Pen drive and more
- Drive, media spanning – Users can backup to multiple CD or DVD burners or multiple CD/DVD discs for unattended backup
- Enhanced storage efficiency – NTI’s on-the-fly compression enables users to store up to 1GB of data on a single CD or 9.4GB on a single DVD while reducing the time required for the backup process
- Password protection – For added data security, users can use password protection on backed up discs and files to prohibit unauthorized access or use
- Complete Windows compatibility – Drive Backup! supports Windows 98, ME, 2000, NT and XP
