I go low tech for backups. Here's my backup software... cd \ xcopy c:\*.* R: /s /d /c /y That is in a batch file called BackuptUSB.BAT that I have a shortcut to on the desktop. I use it both at home and at work. It copies any changed files to the external drive. Only issue I have had with it is that my external drive letter has gotten changed a few times over the years and I have had to redo the batch file.
