What is BackupChain DriveMaker?

BackupChain DriveMaker

BackupChain DriveMaker is your go-to tool for accessing remote servers easily! It supports various connection types and even lets you use command-line support to access files from different locations. One of its coolest features is how it maps your server to a virtual drive on your machine, making file management a breeze.

Lightweight Solution for Remote Access

This desktop program is super lightweight. You can choose which local virtual drive you want to connect to your server. After installing BackupChain DriveMaker, you can quickly add multiple connections using a special command. Each new connection allows for basic or advanced settings, including auto-sync options.

Setting Up Your Connection

When you're ready to set up a new connection in basic mode, all you need is a profile name and some details like the server type (FTP, FTPS, SFTP, or S3), site address, connection port, and user credentials. It's that simple!

Browse Your Files Like Local Files

You'll love the mapping feature! It lets you pick which local drive will connect to the new server. This means you can browse and manage your files just as if they were on your own computer (like in D:\\). How convenient is that?

Troubleshooting Connections

If you're having trouble connecting due to things like firewalls or antivirus programs blocking access, don't worry! BackupChain DriveMaker offers a Passive mode. This uses two channels—one for authentication and one for data transfer—so it can connect through an available port as signaled by the remote server.

Advanced Settings for Power Users

If you're more tech-savvy, you'll appreciate the advanced settings area where you can adjust things like internal local ports and maximum file sizes allowed per connection. You can also enable client-side encryption or set timeouts for both transmission and connections.

User Preferences at Your Fingertips

The software even lets you choose the preferred charset encoding and control how many requests per second are allowed on the connection. Plus, it syncs time zones between your local settings and the server's!

Easier File Management with Version Control

This program is fantastic for syncing directories between your host and remote instances. Instead of just replacing older files with newer ones (and losing them), it automatically renames older versions with a suffix while uploading newer versions in the same spot. It really makes data synchronization smarter!

If you're looking to make remote file management easier than ever, check out BackupChain DriveMaker. It's all about simplifying your work!
