NovaStor Corporation, a global provider of backup and disaster recovery solutions, has advanced its top-selling consumer and small business backup software with the release of NovaBackup 7.0. To accommodate the fast-growing desire to backup to recordable DVD media, a new data writing engine has been built into NovaBackup 7.0 to give seamless backup support for DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R and DVD+RW drives in addition to existing support for CD-R and CD-RW drives. This new version of NovaBackup delivers simple, easy-to-use data protection with its completely redesigned user interface including a new step-by-step backup and restore wizard for guiding users through common tasks.

With the low cost and high availability of disk-based storage devices, NovaStor's NovaBackup 7.0 makes an ideal companion product for enabling users of all levels to make fast and reliable backups of their ever-growing amounts of critical data.
