| Post subject: | Good/best backup software for Windows XP + tape drive |
Hi all, Can anyone point me in the direction of a good or really good backup software solution? Machine to be backed up: XP Prof (shared folder supplies 6 people's data on the LAN) Backup Unit: HP SureStore DAT 320 USB External. Data: About 50 Gig, daily append jobs, weekly full jobs. The backup software that comes with it is rubbish and I want to investigate a better one. Thanks/. W |

Backup Exec if you can afford it. Failing that NTBackup |

I didn't think BackupExec would install on a Windows XP Prof. box. And assuming it does, wouldn't it use up a lot of system resources? Thanks Sas. |

It seems it will at least install on XP, going by this |

Yeah I looked at that too before posting but it's a little misleading to say the least. It makes no differentiation between what systems it will run on and what systems it will backup. Will have to download a trial and see.... Thanks. D |

We use BackupExec here on our servers. It is fairly light - two of the servers have 1GB of memory and still manage to run the backups at a decent pace. |

There's a free trial so you can make sure it works with the tape drive http://www.barracudaware.com/products/desktop-backup Tapeware 7.0 although I've never used it http://www.brothersoft.com/tapeware-15859.html |
