The Backup wizard helps you protect your data if your hard disk stops working or your files are accidentally erased. With Windows SBS 2011 Essentials Backup, you can create a copy of all the data on your hard disk and store the data on an external storage device. If the original data on your hard disk is accidentally erased, overwritten, or becomes inaccessible because of a hard disk malfunction, you can restore the data from the backup. The Restore Files or Folders wizard helps you restore a single file or folder, multiple files or folders, or an entire hard drive from an existing backup.
