Solve : FILE BACKUP AND TRANSFER SOFTWARE - BEST...!!!? |

Answer» FILE BACKUP AND TRANSFER SOFTWARE - BEST...!!! What's your OS? Please explain the comment on long file names. Are both hard drives in the same computer? If so, then the same OS you were running when you created these files is the OS that would be doing the CUT and PASTE. So, why the problem when the long file names? If you encounted problems USING CUT and PASTE, why not break the files down into smaller batches? And, I think you should definitely use COPY, not CUT. Have TRIED using the Windows Backup UTILITY? I see no reason that would not work for this purpose. Do you any CD/DVD burning software installed, such as Nero or Roxio? Try SyncBack for your needs...incremental backups; file comparison between drives/partitions; automated scheduling etc... patio. 8-)Acronis True Image for me. Quote Acronis True Image for me.But, is it the right tool in this case? The OP said, "WHICH IS THE BEST SOFTWARE (PREFERABLY FREEWARE) CURRENTLY AVAILABLE FOR FILE BACK UP AND TRANSFER...? ([HIGHLIGHT]NOT SYSTEM CLONING but only data/file backup [/highlight]and transfer)" It does full and incremental backups, whole partitions, whole computers, etc. as well as cloning. What more could you want? Quote It does full and incremental backups, whole partitions, whole computers, etc. as well as cloning. What more could you want? Eggs over easy , perhaps ? ? i also use Acronis... Quote It does full and incremental backups, whole partitions, whole computers, etc. as well as cloning. What more could you want?I did not know whether it did all that and I doubt many other people know either, since we so often see it mentioned as a tool for creating a mirror image of a whole drive or partition. I even took a quick look at their website, or some website which sells it, and the description did not mention all the capabilities you've stated here.A website that sells it won't have all the details ....travel here: http://www.acronis.com/homecomputing/products/?source=google&ad=acronis&s_scid=acronis|544035737&gclid=CLekxePGyYcCFQ9OWAod7Sw9bQ patio. 8-)hmm... if youve got two computers I would install Cerberus FTP server on one and then Filezilla FTP Client on the other and transfer it that way. Then your not messing with images and the like, also its a straight transfer. Quote hmm... if youve got two computers I would install Cerberus FTP server on one and then Filezilla FTP Client on the other and transfer it that way. The program i suggested above will do all that and more...free SyncBack Quote A website that sells it won't have all the details ....travel here:Yep, good info there. And, I see they have a forum devoted to it. Actually just wanted to give link where those two are compared. http://www.techsupportalert.com/drive-imaging-reviews.htm and for me True Image is much better then Ghost. |
