Why would you want this? In case of a catastrophic event, such as a fire or theft. You need to get your business financial information back online quickly to keep your business running. Your Remote Target copy allows you to restore your data immediately, without having to wait for a large download via the Internet.
Having an external hard drive connected to a server or PC within your business walls is not a good solution. Disk Hero RT allows you to say "yes disk hero backup my data remotely but also send a copy of your backup files to this remote location". The remote target location can be a home PC, or a remote office workstation. Anywhere convenient it is not in the same building.

What does Disk Hero remote target do? It stores a full copy of your data at a secondary location that you determine. The target system needs to be a computer running Windows 2000, XP, the Vista with at least 512k of RAM. This target system requires enough hard drive space to handle the backup files. You can have an external hard drive residing on this target computer or an internal hard drive big enough to handle the data transfer and storage. Each remote target system requires a small somewhat invisible piece of software called an "agent". This agent maintains a heartbeat back to the main Disk Hero server's asking if there are any new data files. If there is new data Disk Hero servers push to the remote target to get newly backed up files. This heartbeat happens every hour providing each system remains on. If turned off then when booted up the heartbeat is done 30 minutes after PC boot up and then every 2 hours for business accounts and every 4 hours for PC, U3 and USB users.
