I'm using the WindowsXP backup ntbackup.exe. In rotation, I do a full backup of one and incremental backups of the other two: D-disc, C-disc excluding Windows, C-disc Windows only. I do this weekly along with a full backup of my system state. A full backup of my D-disc (mostly data) is 2 GB. A full backup of my C-disc (mostly software) without Windows is 3.9-4.0 GB. Windows is 4.4 GB. The system state is 1.1 GB. I let this run while eating dinner, usually on Tuesdays. -- David E.
