3 things: 1 home, 4 computers, 3 TB of drive space ... I need a solution like this that will handle the backups. We'll see if it works better than Windows Home Server.
The 'Hard Drive spanning' feature looks interesting. I have a number of smaller hard drives that sit unused. Adding them to external USB cases and including them in my current backup process would be useful.
Once my C drive became corrupt and my computer wouldn't start. I had all my important information on my C drive and I lost it all. It was horrible. If I had some decent backup software, I would definitely use it. It would save a lot of grief.
My wife got a laptop for Christmas, and then got a new camera with her bonus in January.
Last week, her laptop drive died. No indication - nothing!
She lost all her new pics
Now she understands why I say "Backup".
This s/w will make it easier for her (I hope!)
Just like Dyvim I spent lots of time ripping my CD collection and adding album art etc etc. Adding the album art was done through a freeware ID3 tagger that usually work really good. In the ID3 tag SW there was an Explorer like interface to browse the music collection via folders. The developer had been "thoughtful" enough to also add the usual Explorer functionality like Delete...
I still don't know how I did it, but suddenly the computer was really unresponsive and when I realized that the hard drive indicator was constantly glowing, I freaked out and had to hit Ctrl-Alt-Del to stop. But by then I had already lost around 60% of all the music files...
