Frequently Asked Questions | No. Disk Maid is designed for fast disk to disk backup speeds and generational backups. Optical media like CDR and DVDR can only be accessed with special burning software, which makes them unsuitable for use with Disk Maid. While you may be able to work around this limitation with packet writing utilities, these disks are typically unreliable for long term storage. Combined with their slow access speeds and limited capacity, they are a poor choice for backup purposes. |
| Yes. Disk Maid only scans for files that are known to be safe to delete. In addition, no files are deleted until you select them, so you always have the opportunity to review the scan results before deleting. |
