[DUG] Backup software

[John Bird]

The reason it is so plain is that it is designed to fit on a DOS boot disk – the executable is only about 289K and runs both under DOS and Windows.   How he did that I do not know!   But it does everything it needs to.

Yup Drive Snapshot is really good - extremely plain however.  If you are wanting lots of bells and whistles then Acronis True Image is a good option - but I've found it a pain to get the configuration correct for nightly backups (at least in as much as to get it to remove the old backups before the drive runs out of space).  I've also herd of people using Shadow Protect very well for continuous backups.
