Backup
Backups are recommended for any user who cannot afford to lose important files and data. If a computer failure happens, you’ll have a backup copy of your files and data on the LinkStation. Apple has a Backup Utility for OS X users that have purchased a .Mac account. This will be shown here. Many other backup software solutions are available for both OSX and OS9, but we can’t document them all.
Connect to the Hard drive to your Mac and make sure it is mounted on the desktop.
From your Applications folder, open the application Backup.
By default, the user’s idisk is selected as the backup destination. To change this to the DriveStation, click Set and then Create.
