Look at rsync for windows (GPL) used in conjunction with the task scheduler and the 'at' command. There's also transparent mirrored drive controllers from Arco. There is also a way to autosync folders in win2k and up, but I forget what it is called. BTW if both drives seemed to fail at the same time they were probably on the same controller. Sometimes when the master drive on a controller goes bad it will make the slave drive on the same controller eat it's data too, even if the drive itself is OK. So keep your internal backup drive on a different controller than your main data drive. JohnY ------------------------ Yahoo!
