The NSA maintains the files that have been included in your backups. However to save hard

 

 

disk space, you can choose to delete files that have been included in previous backups.

backups.

 

 

• If you want to store a certain number of backup files, select Keep Only the last n

 

 

backup files (1-30). Enter a value (n) from 1 to 30 to specify how many backups the

 

 

NSA stores. All backup files older than the last one are deleted. You will not be able to

 

 

recover files that existed (only) in those previous backups. Select this if backup space is

 

 

limited and recovery of old files is not important.

day(s)(1-3650). Enter a value (n) from 1 to 3650 to specify how many days the NSA
