FAQ
The Photo Backup Stick will only backup photos once. If you do a backup and later do other backups, each new backup will only back up new photos so it won’t back up duplicate photos.
If you have multiple copies of a photo (either in different locations or backed up from different devices), you can remove duplicates at the push of a button. Only exact duplicates are removed. Photos that are similar but not exact duplicates will not be removed.
By default, it will back up all JPEG/JPG photos because this is the most common format for photos. You can select to have it back up PNG, GIF, TIFF, RAW, BMP, PDF, EPS, 3FR, ARI, ARW, BAY, CRW, CR2, CR3, CAP, DATA, DCS, DCR, DNG, DRF, EIP, ERF, EFF, GPR, IIQ, K25, KDC, MDC, MEF, MOS, MRW, NEF, NRW, OBM, ORF, PEF, PTX PXN, R3D, RAF, RWL, RW2, RWZ, SR2, SRF, SRW, TIF, and X3F images as well.
