No issues at all other than the fact that my drive wouldn't read the
backup tape that I made when I needed it. It ran fine as far as I could
tell but the money I spend on it was considerable back then and I was not
happy.

I really don't see what issues people have with tape. A properly
maintained and executed tape backup is great.

that doesn't work? Even the free stuff is crap! Get another hardrive
and a
USB thumb drive to duplicate your irreplaceable data. Backup software
is
just another scam. The federal government itself can't backup
irreplaceable historical data because old formats die and fail to get
transfered to new formats. History is being lost as we speak. Multiple
copies work and that is the best way to keep from losing it all.
I rather agree. I've dealt with a lot of backup software that just
doesn't
work properly. The one that has been best for me as been Retrospect.
I'm
now looking for software that will back up to the cloud, but that seem
tricky to find a good one as well.
