Hi,

I'm using Time machine to backup my internal 500 GB drive to an external and it works great.
Now I also have two 500GB External disks connected to my iMac full of FLAC and MP3 files (I'm ripping my entire CD collection). I do my ripping and tagging using Windows running on a Bootcamp Partition, because of this the two external drives are FAT32. I want to back them up to another 1TB External drive and was wondering what would be the best Windows app to do this?

Thanks,
Mark Morb

It's NTBACKUP for you I'm afraid.

Jokingly aside, I don't think there is an equivalent.

Acronis products are pretty good though. Might be worth a look there.

I agree with markfc, Acronis is the way to go. Take a look at True Image by Acronis, very effective and has saved my Windows butt on numerous occasions. :D

I'm using this at work as it came with my Seagate External and its closer to Time Machine than the very useful True Image.

Volume Shadow Copy and Vista Backup to another hard drive are my friends.
