Robocopy is really nice and simple when it comes to "mirroring" a disk used exclusively for data. It gets a good bit more involved when you start using it to backup particular files and folders. You might want to look into using a ligitimate backup program when it comes to backing up application data. Then you'll be able to do things like go back and restore a document that you accidentally deleted last Monday. -- JJZolx Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=40281 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
