Hi,
Looking for some advice here as I've managed to confuse myself
I have a large number of photos and other important documents on one of my harddrives which I want to backup to an external drive. The photos are sometimes edited, cropped, etc but this is quite sporadic. The improtant documents do no get looked at, they're simply there incase my HD blows up.
Now, given that I'm working with some of the files but not all, do I want to sync these files or back them up? I'm not entirely sure what the difference is! I started by using synctoy 2.0 which seems fine but has no task setup function (to make it automatic). I have also downloaded GFI Backup
Can someone give me a pointer as to which tool I need and why? Cheers.
