Back up Software

[Andy.]

I have always done manual backups of all my files but with over 67,000 photos (200GB) and 100GB of camcorder files, it is taking ages to complete each time.

Does anybody have any experience of software which keeps track of what it backed up last time and only writes the new/ changed files each time as opposed to all? I do almost bi-weekly backups so could save myself a lot of time.... i hope!

even windows backup will do an incremental backup

Memeo is a good bit of kit

Sounds like you need something like OSX's Time machine.

It will do a massive backup for the first time and then just add to the backup everytime something changes. and if you delete a file you can go back in time to find it.

Mac FTW

cron'd rsync to NAS ftw.
