I saw the poster.

I thought "no, philgo, how could you not have a backup".

Good one.

SyncBack is a flexible, and quite powerful backup and synchronization program that allows to to maintain backup copies of your files and folder, or to synchronize them, so that both locations always have a complete copy (e.g Laptop/PC). It offers different types of actions that let you choose how older and newer files are processed, which files should be excluded (by mask) and more. It offers standard file comparison based on the date and size, as well as optional MD5 checksum, which will detect even the slightest modifications to files. SyncBack also supports scheduled projects, FTPand zip compression of backups, as well as network login, simulation runs and more.

Ditto here

Ah Philgo, our "Virtual Nag" when it comes to backups (That was a joke for those who didn't know...)

I'm glad you do remind all of us, like Martha says, "It's a good thing."

All I ask is that if you do a backup because of my thread and your HDD fails soon after, you worship the ground I walk on

As if I haven't got backups, I even backup my backups.

I even backup my backups.

Me too. After Vista has made its routine backup, I then copy the files to an external drive. It only takes a few moments to do.

I borrowered Phil's idea and started a thread on a couple different sites...Had to revise the concept a bit cause I was getting laughed at for being so stuipd. The Revision->

Don't let this be your next thread, backup today just in case........

This reminder was brought to you by your friendly "Have you hugged your hard drive today" group.
