I do daily incremental backups every night and a full backup once a week to an external HDD. And in real-time I backup to a second computer on a simple home network. The utility I use is SYNCBACK SE from 2brightsparks. The program has been mentioned here before. Works great and has saved my butt a number of times. It does many great things but for me the learning curve was quite steep. YMMV.
