Delta Drive, Delta Trust & My Drive

  1. Delta Trust, Delta Drive and My Drive

    Delta Trust is a private vault for your backups that only you can read. Delta Drive is a working drive for your everyday files, in Finder and in any browser. My Drive is that same working drive on storage you already own.

  2. Delta Trust

    Delta Trust is a private vault for your backups, kept by Storage Studio. Backups are encrypted on your Mac before they leave it, nothing on your Mac can delete your history, and you can go back to any earlier version.

  3. Delta Drive

    Delta Drive is the working half of a Delta Trust plan. Your everyday files appear in Finder like a disk, in the Delta Drive window and in any browser, and you can link folders from your Mac so a copy is kept up to date.

  4. My Drive

    My Drive is Storage Studio's working drive running on storage you already own and pay for. It needs only a Storage Studio trial or licence, works in the app, in Finder and in a browser, and includes sharing with named people.

  5. Setting up My Drive

    To set up My Drive you confirm your email with an 8-digit code sent to the address your Storage Studio trial or licence is registered to, then connect the storage you own. The code works for 15 minutes, on the Mac that asked for it.

  6. What the Delta Drive badges mean

    Small marks beside each item in Delta Drive and My Drive tell you where it is right now — online only, ready to read, or always on this Mac — and whether it keeps versions, is shared, or is linked to a folder on your Mac.

  7. The recovery kit

    Your recovery kit is a page of 24 words made when you create your Delta Trust vault. It is the only way to reach your backups if your Mac is lost, replaced or repaired. Storage Studio keeps no copy and cannot recover it for you.

  8. Sharing files from Delta Drive and My Drive

    Share a file or folder from Delta Drive or My Drive with named people only. Each person proves who they are with an emailed code, you choose what they can do and when the share stops working, and you can see who opened it and withdraw it at any time.
