Selecting a backup plan
The WD SmartWare™ software automatically scans your computer's internal hard drive and provides two backup plans, which are ways to back up your files:
- Category Backup—Arranges files into categories based on their file name extensions. You can then select the categories that you want to back up.
- File Backup—Arranges files according to the folder structure of your computer's hard drive. You can then select the files or folders that you want to back up.
To select a backup plan:
- Select the option for the backup plan that you want to use for your first backup:
- Category Backup
- File Backup
- Click Launch WD SmartWare.
