What kind of backup with what?

 

[jmwills]

Data files, yes. Operating systems files, NO!!

 

[computer worx]

daily backup with the windows utility

 

[kimsland]

Start - Run - NTBACKUP

That's the best and easiest for data files

Just thought I'd throw that in !!

"CobianBackup," which is a freebee, for data files is highly recommended here at TSG. Likewise Acronis' "TrueImage" for system and programs. It will also handle data files in its recent versions, as I understand. I like having them separate myself.
