I looked at the backup in Win7 and I couldn't find where it did an incremental or differential backup. Did I miss something? Since most of what I want to backup won't change, I don't want to have to back it all up again and again. Am I missing something here in the terminology maybe? Basically I want a backup program that will backup fully what I choose to backup, then only backup anything that's changed or added after that point.

I'm pretty happy with the backup in Win 7. Not sure if it meets your criteria 
tho.

I recently picked up a 3TB GoFlex drive and the Memeo 'free' 'instant backup' 
software made me puke.  Crippleware always affects me that way.  How is it 
crippleware?  It will only backup drive C, no other drive or folder on another 
drive, unless, of course, you pony up the bucks for the 'advanced version'.  
Also the Memeo doesn't seem to be incremental or differential, as long as it 
has stored a file by that name, it don't care, make another full backup!
[end rant]

The real purpose is to find out what's out there for backup software 
(preferably free) which can do incremental and work with a USB drive.  Gizmo 
has got a couple of recommendations, but it would be great to hear from someone 
with experience.  And, yes, between TV, Movies and Music, 3TB would just about 
do it.  Yeah, I know I'm on the low end....;-)

Thanks....Steve
