Dmailer – Product Review

Looking for back-up software, try this simple file back-up solution…

Dmailer

 

Recently I have been trying to find simple, affordable software to do standard automated file backups to hard and flash drives. I have tried several different types of freeware and shareware, but have found that for my money, I like Dmailer.

The Dmailer software uses customizable data synchronization to allow you to synchronize and save all your personal data. This includes photos, music, emails, contacts, calendars, Favorites/Bookmarks, etc. These files can be backed up to a few different types of media, including USB flash drive, internal or external hard drives and any type of digital media card (via card reader). The full version direct from Dmailer even has a built in e-mail client.

Another feature the software has is the ability to automatically encrypt your documents and also offers a secure browsing mode that leaves no traces behind including any browsing history thus ensuring your data remains secure. When re-connected to the source PC, you just plug in your storage device and launch Dmailer, and all you’re new or modified data will be synchronized between your PC and your storage device. Because of this, your data back-up is always kept up to date and secure.

For more information about Dmailer, please visit the Dmailer website.

Proper Data Back

Data backup is important to all users of computers. Backup data is generally used when a user experiences loss of data. According to an online survey by Kabooza, 66% of respondents have lost data. This is really not surprising as 54% of those respondents did not have any backup at all for their machines. Additionally, 82% of respondents had no regular backup schedule.

Backing up your information will allow you to ensure that you do not lose data as a result of a computer crash or virus infection. There are many different backup methods that will work for you. EDGE offers two different backup programs with their external drives. One is Backup4All, which comes bundled with our one touch backup drives. The other is Dmailer, which is included on all of our other hard drives.

At EDGE, we recommend that you back up your data at least once a week. Both of our backup programs allow you to choose the files you would like to backup and the frequency of your backups. I would recommend that your first backup be a full backup, this will save all the data on your hard drive. In order to save space, we recommend that you run a differential backup on subsequent backup sessions. A differential backup saves files which have been changed or created since your last backup.

EDGE Tech Corp. Announces Suite of SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Flash Drives

EDGE Tech Corp introduces two models of its first line of SuperSpeed USB 3.0 DiskGO® flash drives – the DiskGO SuperSpeed USB 3.0 and the DiskGO Secure USB 3.0. EDGE is a leading U.S.-based supplier of DRAM and flash memory upgrades, portable computing products, storage devices, and other experience-enhancing technology solutions.

Dallas, TX (PRWEB) March 17, 2011

EDGE Tech Corp introduces two models of its first line of SuperSpeed USB 3.0 DiskGO® flash drives – the DiskGO SuperSpeed USB 3.0 and the DiskGO Secure USB 3.0. EDGE is a leading U.S.-based supplier of DRAM and flash memory upgrades, portable computing products, storage devices, and other experience-enhancing technology solutions.
Both new models are available in 8GB, 16GB, and 32GB capacities to meet the growing adoption of the new USB 3.0 standard. A capless swivel design protects the USB connector and eliminates the need for a clunky cap. Each drive delivers blazing transfer speeds of up to 5Gb/s—10x faster than USB 2.0 flash drives (480Mb/s). The read and write speeds are as follows:

  • 8GB: 47MB/s (read) 35MB/s (write)
  • 16GB: 67MB/s (read) 30MB/s (write)
  • 32GB: 70MB/s (read) 40MB/s (write)

 

DiskGO USB 3.0 flash drives can back up HD movies, photo collections, and entire music libraries in seconds when connected to a USB 3.0 port. EDGE’s Product Development Manager, Brandon Coles, said, “As technology evolves, the release of new consumer devices with sophisticated user applications creates greater demand for higher transfer rates and performance connection between PCs and other devices. USB 3.0 meets that demand with remarkable increases in speed and lower power consumption.”

CryptArchiver—powerful encryption and password protection software—comes standard on the DiskGO Secure USB 3.0 Flash Drive. Users can encrypt data using either government standard 256-bit AES or 448-bit Blowfish encryption. No software installation is required. The application is portable and fully processed from the flash drive. The DiskGO SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Flash Drive comes preloaded with CryptArchiver Lite, a trial version of the software that secures data using 128-bit AES encryption.

DiskGO USB 3.0 drives are backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 ports and work with both PC and Mac computers. All EDGE flash drives come standard with a limited lifetime warranty.
