<DIV>For complete disk backups:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I use Drive Snapshot - have used it for 6-7 years and it has saved my
hide several times. Complete backup of a PC with 200GB data
including Windows runs in about 2 hours. Backup size on USB
disk is around 100GB. Backups can be mounted and Windows Explorer used to
browse for individual files. Cheap, fast, small and reliable.</DIV>

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Note the web site doesn’t make this clear, but it is easy to restore C:
from Windows too – it offers to restart and run the restore before windows boots
– similar to Windows Update etc</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Some time ago the best one in the reviews was Acronis disk
backup. otherwise Norton Ghost.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Key folders Backup</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If you want to quickly backup a few key folders to a USB drive zipped up
then I have one: - wrote just such a program at the request of Christchurch
clients who couldn’t get at their server for 6 weeks (they had tapes but no
server with the tape drive and software and the network supplier also was locked
out of their office). Takes from a few seconds to a minute or two
depending on size of folders . Program contains ZipKit
so there are no external DLL’s and its nearly as fast as Pkzip/Winzip.</DIV>
