• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service.

  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

The speed depends on the level of compression, the task priority and the I/O priority. All of that can be set on the backup "Settings" page by the "admin" account of the server.
Low compression = faster
High compression = slower
High task priority value = lower speed of backup, higher speed of other services
Low task priority value = higher speed of backup, lower speed of other services
High I/O priority value = lower speed of backup, higher speed of other services
Low I/O priority value = higher speed of backup, lower speed of other services

Example for a moderate load and moderate compression:
