STEP 1 – SELECT BACKUP SOURCE 
The backup source can be located remotely or it can be a public, a private home share, or all home 
shares on the ioSafe R4.   
A USB device will appear as a share, so if you want to backup a USB device, select on a share name 
starting with USB.  If you want to backup data from a remote source, you will need to select from 
one of the following: 
Windows/NAS (Timestamp)
 – select this if you wish to backup a share from a 
Windows PC or another ioSafe R4 device.  Incremental backups use timestamps to 
determine whether files should be backed up.
