The recommended option for both supported platforms is to restore via the client interface. That said, the selection process is easy, and I had little issue using the interface. These selections blew right past the imposed 2 GB limit, and I had to spend about 15 minutes going through and deselecting items to back up. It selected my photos, music, video, and document directories by default. I would like to see MozyFree shrink its default file selection. It will handle locked files, like PST files, and show you the amount of space you are currently using. MozyHome selects a pre-determined set of folders based on platform and programs installed. Platform differences otherwise are minimal, with the natural exception of user interface changes. This release has increased general speed and lowered processing overhead associated with the “military-grade” encryption. The screenshots in the gallery below are from the MacOS client, which has yet to be updated to the “2.0” release.

MOZYHOME RESTORE FREE
MozyFree – a 2 GB free edition of MozyHome.EMC’s name is not really known beyond the massive data centers of large banks, government, and other enterprise installations, but with EMC’s stewardship, Mozy has become a leading online backup solution, hitting 1 million customers in 2009. Mozy is produced by Dechu Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of EMC. No matter how much time you’ve spent disaster-proofing your data though, MozyHome provides elegant secondary, off-site storage for when the worst happens and all your data is seemingly lost to the nether. Or perhaps you realized it was a bad idea to have data on independent drives, so you bought a RAIDed DAS/NAS solution and have been using that. As hard drives grow larger and larger, it has become common to allocate an older computer to handle the family music and photos.

MozyHome is a simple solution to a problem many of us have: what do you do when all your data safeguards fail? It’s a scary thought.
