I am looking for a decent backup software solution that will create a copy of my PC files to a separate SSD. Ideally this will be real-time backup (continuous data protection) but not essential. I have a number of internal disks and lots of storage space, files include 500GB of photos, so not huge.

I appreciate Windows 10 includes Backup and Restore, but the software needs to be able to restore individual files. I see Storage Spaces is included with Win10 but I have not used this before so not sure if this is any good?

Ideally as cheap as possible for a home user but I don't mind paying for decent software that won't slow down the PC too much.

If anyone has any experience, I'd love to hear your thoughts, pros and cons.

Appreciate any input.
 
Storage Spaces is basically Software Raid, for making pools of drives if your running out of pace.
