Review by M. Duncan

If you can figure out how to make it work; clue–you can back up your files just as easily by copying them to an external HD and it’s 10 x less hassle to copy them back when you format. The only useful feature, which you have to find out too late is the clone control button–with the disk in the bay.

If all you want is to schedule file back-ups, go for Nero 8 Ultra. It does this and about 21 other things. For ultimate off-site back-up (houses do burn down and kids will kill your PC); subscribe to Carbonite.
