METHOD AND A REMOVABLE DEVICE FOR BACKING UP AND RESTORING A HOST DEVICE

摘要

A method and a removable device for backing up/restoring a host device are disclosed. A portable application is resident in a removable device, which is external to the host device and is capable of being electrically coupled to the host device. The portable application is launched to the host device after the removable device is coupled to the host device. If a backup function is selected, a backup process begins by moving data to be backed up from the host device to the removable device; and if a restore function is selected, a restore process begins by moving data to be restored from the removable device to the host device.
