- REGISTRATION
-
- A package which contains the unregistered versions of
- Diskpack and dRestore has been released as "freeware".
- This gives users on opportunity to thoroughly test Diskpack
- before purchasing it and helps us market our software.
-
- The unregistered versions of Diskpack and dRestore are
- equivalent to the registered versions except that dRestore
- can only compare the files on your backup disks with the
- files on your hard disk- not restore them. You can use
- Diskpack to make regular backups of your hard disk and,
- since dRestore compares it with your backup disks, you can
- be certain your backup copy is accurate. If you need to
- restore files from your backup disks, please contact us and
- we'll get a registered version to you as quickly as you
- need it.
-
- Your help in distributing the unregistered versions of
- Diskpack and dRestore is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

- ADVANTAGES OF DISKPACK
-
- * Diskpack is much faster than the DOS Backup command.
- On an IBM AT, Diskpack backs up 10 Megabytes of data
- in about 4 minutes.
-
- * Diskpack compresses files up to 80%. This means you
- can back up a 20 Megabyte hard disk onto 4 floppies.
- Diskpack compresses files more efficiently than the
- "other" backup program, and it does it faster. The
- "other" program has a compression mode that runs
- slower than its non-compression mode and only
- compresses about 25%. Diskpack compresses files
- without sacrificing speed.
-
- * Diskpack is more reliable. It uses DOS to write files
- to your backup disks. All other fast backup programs
- bypass DOS and take direct control of your machine- a
- practice that is generally considered risky. That's
- why they don't work with all PCs or non-standard disk
- drives. You can use Diskpack on all IBM and
- compatible PCs and back up files to any DOS device
- (including tape).
