DVD Backup Software - 10/21/2008

While DVD backups and DVD backup software certainly have a place in today’s complex computing environment, the real question is what place is it. DVDs have more capacity today than ever before, and the outlook is good for truly massive storage being available to mainstream computers very soon. Space, then, is not really a concern.

The best DVD backup software programs provide the ability for users to choose their media for backup. Choices for the end-user may include DVD, CD, CDRW, or other removable drives and storage media. Most DVD backup solutions also share a common fault in that the copies of data, regardless of storage media, are made on the local area network. Data backups made to any media on the LAN require that the media be taken offsite to be truly secure. If not, they run the risk of being destroyed along with the original copies and hardware should a disaster such as a fire or floods affect the business location. Imagine a scenario where fresh backups were created using state of the art DVD backup software were destroyed simply because they were left onsite. Now imagine a scenario where the data were copied not using DVD backup software, but online backup software. While files copied to DVDs or other portable media are rarely encrypted, remote backup software typically requires some level of encryption and compression in order to do its job. While files backed up using even the best DVD backup software are typically left onsite, remote backup software natively ships it to a secure offsite server for storage.
