ReadySHARE Vault Windows Backup
ReadySHARE Vault lets you back up files from your Windows PC onto the internal hard disk in the router or to a USB device attached to the router USB port. ReadySHARE Vault uses incremental backup technology. After the first backup has been completed, ReadySHARE Vault checks to find out which files have changed since the last backup, and then backs up only the changes.
