IDrive BMR Express Backup

  • Updated

IDrive BMR Express helps you transfer bulk data stored on the IDrive BMR device to your cloud account quickly without choking the local network, using physical shipment of a temporary storage device. Data backed up to the IDrive BMR Express device will be encrypted using the same default or private key configured on your IDrive BMR device. 

This service is available only within the USA and is free once per year. All subsequent requests will be charged.

Note: 

  • Data to the cloud cannot be transferred via cloud replication, while cloud seeding is in progress. All your data transfers, including scheduled transfers to the cloud, will resume once cloud seeding is completed.
  • After the Express transfer is completed, you can schedule your cloud replications to maintain an updated cloud repository of your local backups.
