The recommended method of backup (including with external drives) is to setup a :ref:`Network Folder<backup>` via your OS. However, you may use an external drive plugged directly into your server.
|
|
|
|
.. warning:: If you are using a low-powered device (like a RasPi), this drive MUST have external power, or be connected via a powered USB hub in order to prevent any data corruption due to power constraints! Server One and Server Pure users can safely ignore this warning.
|
|
|
|
#. Ensure your backup drive is properly formatted. The recommended format at this time is ``exFAT``. **Do not** use ``fat32``.
|
|
|
|
#. If your drive is self-powered, you can plug it directly into your Start9 server blue USB 3.0 slot. If not, first plug the drive into a powered USB hub, then plug the hub into your Start9 server. Then you may power it up.
|
|
|
|
#. Go to *System > Create Backup*
