Online Backup Service
Powered by BeInSync
The Cruzer
®
Titanium Plus flash drive includes a
6-month
FREE integrated online backup service
It’s a set-and-forget service–
• This online backup service automatically backs up all
the files stored on your Cruzer
®
Titanium Plus flash drive
every time the flash drive is inserted into a computer that
is connected to the Internet.
• There is no need for you to do anything during the backup
process.
• Deleted files that have been backed up online before
their deletion will remain online. Those files are stored
for as long as the size of the files stored online is less
than the capacity mentioned on your Cruzer
®
Titanium
Plus drive (for more details go to ‘Restoring Deleted Files’
section).
This service is simple and secure–All your data is pro-
tected by, and is transferred over, an encrypted 256 bit AES
channel to a secure online storage location.
Getting Started

®
Titanium Plus flash drive into the

Yes: Accesses the Web registration form (see Activating
Your Backup Service).
•
No: Deactivates the service (your data is not backed up
and protected).
•

through U3 Launchpad.

Taskbar
Whenever the Cruzer
®
Titanium Plus flash drive is inserted
into a computer which is connected to the Internet, a
taskbar icon appears in the status bar of your computer.

Restoring Deleted Files
When you delete a file that has been backed up, it is not
necessarily deleted from the backup service. Deleted files
are stored for as long as the size of the files stored online
is less than the capacity mentioned on your Cruzer
®
Titanium Plus drive and are removed on a first in-first
out basis. This means that the oldest deleted files are
removed from the backup service before more recently
deleted files.
When accessing the online backup service, files that have
been deleted appear in the list of files marked with an X.
Click on a file to restore it.

ized use of the online backup service, visit https://sandisk.
beinsync.com/ and select

operated on this device.
