# Export

|

## Can I backup my data in a local drive outside Ente?
|
||||
|
||||
Yes! You can use our CLI tool or our desktop app to set up exports of your data
|
||||
in a local drive or NAS of your choice. This way, you can use Ente in your day
|
||||
to day use, but will have an additional guarantee that a copy of your original
|
||||
photos and videos are always available in normal directories and files.
|
||||
|
||||
* You can use [Ente's CLI](https://github.com/ente-io/ente/tree/main/cli#export)
|
||||
to export your data in a cron job to a location of your choice. The exports
|
||||
are incremental, and will also gracefully handle interruptions.
|
||||
|
||||
* Similarly, you can use Ente's [desktop app](https://ente.io/download/desktop)
|
||||
to export your data to a folder of your choice. The desktop app also supports
|
||||
"continuous" exports, where it will automatically export new items in the
|
||||
background without you needing to run any other cron jobs. See
|
||||
[migration/export](/photos/migration/export/) for more details.
