Hi Guys

Quick question, I have an external hard drive, a myBook that is networked.

I currently backup my documents etc on a secondary hard drive and then the myBook, is it possible to copy files to my secondary hard drive and the mybook just automatically replicate that hard drive instead of me moving everything over twice?

Thanks

Andy
 
there is a lot of software that will do this for you, and will also reduce the copying that you do to just those files that have been altered, Synctoy from Microsoft is one that is free to use, allway sync another.
 
robocopy /e "c:\docs" "d:\backup\docs"
robocopy /e "d:\backup\docs" "e:\backup2\docs"

save that in a bat file, if you're on vista you'll already have robocopy, otherwise, find it on the net and drop it in your system32 folder

Sounds easy enough! But what am I finding on the net??
