I've never seen this posted ebfore, and couldnt find anything searching.
I need a program that will make a daily backup of a folder on my hard drive (my website) and just copy it to another drive/partition.
Anything? the windows thing will only do a one time backup job. and it's slow as hell too. :dry:
i always used the bounceback express
that came bundled with with my seagate external HDD
never had it muff a backup, faster than windows too
thing is its shareware :dry:
i dont know about the version that came with my drive though...
dont know if i've ever left it installed for more than a month :P
theres loads of free stuff here:
http://www.snapfiles.com/freeware/system/fwbackup.html
but i never tried any of em
-edit-
there is one that i was meaning to try...
but dont think its there on snapfiles
cant remember if it was freeware or a cracked shareware...
hell i cant even remember the name :blink: :ohmy: :lol:
it looked promising though :P
i have it somewhere, lemme find it, and i'll post wtf it was and some info
-edit again-
nvm, cant find it, probably on that dvd that got fkd up
fkn record now, gay ass HP bundled shit :dry: :angry:
lol, well that's ok thanks.
I'm using that SyncBack program that was on the site you posted. It seems to do what I want, except that I would like it to create a new folder called whatever the date is when it does a backup so that it wont overwrite the old backup everytime.
:ohmy: i remember the name!!!!!! :ohmy: :lol:
nova backup, but its not free,
(anywhere from 50-150 bucks, depending on the version)
and looks a bit much for what you need it for
plus i never even got to try it out...
record now/HP made sure of that :dry:
You mean you can pay for software? :ohmy:
:P I'll try that now and see if it does what i want. thanks for the suggestions.
ya that one.Quote:

Why don’t you consider online backups? I think online backup is the right solution to keep your data securely offsite. Having your backup data in the same HDD is a risk against disasters.
We use this online backup service, there are options to schedule automatic backups every day/ week/ month or however you require it to do. All you need to do is select the files, save it as a backup set and schedule it for regular backups.
two reasons why I wouldn't:Quote:

HDDs aren't very expensive these days (unless you're an SCSI fan)
too cheap & easy to set up some kind of redundancy locally to justify the risks of online storage IMO
