IDrive explains how their Hybrid Backup works

According to IDrive: “We’re a taking a new approach to backup, giving our users the best of both worlds with our new Hybrid backup feature. IDrive users can now backup their critical files locally and also in the cloud. Local backup solves one of major pain points of online backup, slow restore speeds. Backing up large amounts of data becomes easy as well with local backup, as the large data sets do not have to be backed up over the internet, as upload speeds can be slowed but rather locally, which offers faster backup.”

IDrive launched Facebook backup

“Facebook has become an integral part of our social lives. We upload our own pictures and videos while friends tag us in theirs to remind us of shared memories. Facebook provides a way to download photos and videos, but does not include the ones you are tagged in. What if a friend ‘unfriends’ you, untags you, or deletes their account? Those tagged pictures and videos are gone forever. IDrive’s Facebook Backup provides a secure, encrypted place to store your Facebook data so you don’t have to worry about lost memories. All of your Facebook pictures and videos (including the ones you are tagged in) will always be safely backed up to your IDrive account. Facebook Backup also does incremental backups, which means subsequent backups will only backup the new pictures and videos that have been added since the last backup.”
