Memory Box Backup

Adam Internet customers now have access to a free 5GB service with Memory Box, an online data backup service. With Memory Box, you can back up your personal data, photos, documents, music and anything else online in a safe and secure manner. If at any point you lose your data from your hard drive, you can simply restore the data by downloading it again using Memory Box.

How does it work?

Memory Box a small application that you install on your computer that handles all of the backup process. You can configure which folders you wish to backup and Memory Box takes care of the rest. If at any point you wish to restore a file, you just click on the restore button.

How are the files stored?

Memory Box uses a distributed file storage method where the data is stored on other machines using Memory Box, this effectively makes for a vast array of backup storage drives. Every computer using Memory Box will store a small portion of another user's backup data. This small portion will only be a fragment of a file and will never be a complete file and Memory Box does not show where the files are coming from or where they are going to. Your backup data is stored in such a way that it can never be read by another user, nor can you ever read their data.

What happens to the backups?



Each file is compressed, encrypted, broken into many fragments and then distributed over the Internet to other users on the Memory Box network. The fragments are continuously moved to the optimum position on the network to make recovery easy. Even if up to 30% of the network is lost the entire original file can be recovered in full.

How much data is stored on my machine?

Backup data stored on your computer is dependent on the amount of your own data you backup. In exchange for the space used by the data you backup, data from other users is stored on your computer. You cannot see these files or see who they belong to as they are only file fragments.

What happens to other people's backups if I lose my hard drive?

Each file fragment is stored in such a way that even if parts of a file are lost, the file as a whole can still be recovered. This means other people can still recover their files if some of their data was stored on your computer.
