how does one upgrade an external drive?
what is NTFS?? Well, I see it is a "file system," but what is that?

Your Vista machine is probably using NTFS for its file system. Your
external drive is probably using FAT32. NTFS handles DST correctly,
while FAT32 does not.
Solution is to upgrade the external drive to NTFS (or some other real
file system).

I back up my Dell (runnung Vista) to a WD My Book 500 Gb External hard

With the changeover to Standard time, all the files on the External
drive now show timestamps one hour later than all the files on my C
drive. The time stamps on another backup drive (Maxtor) and on DVD's
agree, so the error is in the WD.
Any ideas? WD blows it off by saying its probably Vista's doing, but no
specifics. Makes it incremental backup impossible.
