Hardware support

Choose a hardware backup device easily

As part of making backups easy, BackupAssist has built-in support for a wide variety of backup hardware. Your setup is simply a matter of point-and-click from the Wizard, and you'll never have to work around device-specific issues.

Our approach of rich hardware support also enables us to eliminate many of the pain-points that can plague other backup systems. And although there are subtle differences between different backup technologies (for example, imaging versus file-based backup), BackupAssist presents a common interface between them all.

USB eject and drive letter assignment made easy!

Case Study: Seamless USB hard drive support

BackupAssist solves the two biggest problems with USB HDD backups:

1. Safely removing (ejecting) the hard drive after the backup
2. Making sure that the correct drive letter is assigned before the backup. With the media tracking option, BackupAssist will reassign the drive letter if it gets changed by the OS, and when it is safe to do so.
