Backing Up Without WD SmartWare

Windows Backup
Apple Time Machine

If you choose not to use WD SmartWare software for backing up files to the 

 

My Book Live, you can use Windows Backup or Apple TimeMachine as an 
alternative.

The Windows Backup feature of Windows Vista (Business, Ultimate, and Enterprise) 
and Windows 7 (Professional and Ultimate versions) enable you to back up media 
files, documents, email, and other personal files to your My Book Live drive. If you 
lose files or your system crashes, you can easily restore them to your PC. For more 
information on Windows Backup, consult Microsoft's documentation.
