Can anyone recommend a decent backup prog for Vista?

I'm running a raid 0 array, and I have another 300Gb Seagate SATA II drive in the PC.

I want some software that I can mark my MP3's and photos to be backed up to the SATA drive, and it will automatically backup any additions to those folders..

I looked at the inbuilt Vista backup prog, but it's not very granular...

Cheers!
 
I use a free program called "Allway Sync" which works fine in vista 64. However you have to manually click the "sync" button though but I find it very good. It also has an "Analyze" button too which will show you any new files or changes.
 
robocopy /e c:\source d:\destination

save that as a bat file and run it each time you add something to the source drive

it'll copy new and updated files/folders only.




so the first run will take a while, then every run after that will only copy new files
 
Thanks guys, I'll take a look at some of those..

I want it to be automated really, so will have a look at Syncback...

I know of Robocopy, as I use it in work to move data from one server to another - I don't want to rely on a batch file really though..

Thanks again!
