The concept is similar to Apple's Time Capsule in that it requires a Transporter hardware with a hard drive to locally store the backups and file versions.</p>  <p>Here's how version history will work with the latest Transporter software:</p>

<p>Generally speaking, version history will keep the last version when you save or delete a file. The retention is cumulative, such that a file may have many past versions, going back to its creation. If you delete a folder, it will keep the entire folder with contents.</p> <p>In more precise terms, please keep in mind that versioning depends upon the sync process between your computer and the Transporter and/or between multiple Transporter units. That means you will have gaps in a file's history if you save that file more often than the Transporter can sync it (minimum sync interval is approximately one minute but may vary under heavy activity).</p>
