Here's the situation: I have a 160 GB external drive that I use to back up documents, photos, and music files. But I have no way to do incremental back-ups; I'm looking for software that will make this automatic and painless.
This is what I envision:
I set the software to perform, say, a weekly back-up of selected directories. Come back-up time, the software recognizes that, since the last back-up, I've added eight music files, 25 photoes, and revised three Word documents. It leaps to action, adding these 36 files to the existing previously-backed-up file on my external drive.
I currently have Buffalo Easy Backup to Hard Drive, version 1.01, but it doesn't seem to do incrementals.
Thanks for any advice.
