IDrive Portable is a USB hard drive designed for local backup. IDriveSync allows a user to synchronize files across different devices. IDrive also provides activity reports, backup status reports and shared file reports. įiles on IDrive are stored using 256-bit AES encryption allowing for an optional user-defined key that must be shared with IDrive, but which IDrive claims will not be permanently stored on their servers. If a user wants access to all backup files, IDrive can ship all backup files on a 3 TB hard drive. Backup files can be accessed remotely from any Internet browser or with IDrive's client software. IDrive provides multiple data retrieval options. The iDrive application runs natively on Windows, OSX, as well as on several models of NAS devices made by Synology, QNap, and Netgear. IDrive allows a user to back up data from all compatible devices to a single account.

Users can share their files through email, social media sites including Facebook and Twitter, and via a mobile phone application for Android, iPhone and Windows Phone. The previous 10 versions of a file are automatically retained and IDrive does not automatically delete backup data, even if backup files are deleted on the user's computer. Users have the ability to limit bandwidth usage during the backup process. IDrive offers incremental and compressed backups so users only upload modified portions of a backup file, and files may also be updated in real time with a continuous backup option. Once installed, users select folders and files to be backed up at user-specified times. IDrive is an automated backup application that runs on Windows, Mac, iOS and Android.
