Backup software

I use Synctoy to backup but now i have a 3rd drive that i would like to backup to. So, back up all on drive one to drive 2 and 3.

Any software that i can use to backup from one drive to the other 2 at the same time? Thanks

Synctoy only allows folder pairs.

FreeFileSync allows batch processing of folder pairs. Doing both drives at the same time will bog down the source drive anyway so you'd be better off doing it properly^^

Never seen that one.

Whats the best way to backup data from one drive to 2 sep drives?

Batch process in freefilesync

Are drive 2 and 3 the same size, you could put them in Raid 1

He's asking for a backup solution.

Exactly, if he can raid the 2 drives in mirror raid 1 just do one back up and you have 2 drives with the same data on each.
That's the same safety level as backing up twice but a lot faster

This solves the OP because he can still use Synctoy.
