John, Nero is fine and safe. You should have received a copy of Nero OEM with most DVD drives, so there's no need to purchase the retail version. I'd suggest never actually using the Nero GUI, but the command line version to write a DVD like this: C:\Progra~1\Ahead\Nero\nerocmd --write --drivename g -- force_erase_cdrw --real --underrun_prot --create_iso_fs --iso JVD -- verify --dvd --recursive e:\backup In this example the DVD drive is G:, it will erase a RW disk if it finds one, do a recursive backup of e:\backup and verify it. You should of course snapshot your database/s to e:\backup first - this can be done using a command line in the same script. regards, Peter.
