I just purchased 2 external 200gb hard drives for purposes of backing up files (documents, pictures, wallpapers and various other media).

I have two computers, my production computer is also my backup solution where the two drives are plugged in.

Aside from manually dragging and dropping files, is there an automated solution that would sync the two computers to the backup drives?

I am jsut looking for any suggestions.

Here is what I am planning:

Using Acronis True Image:

Backup drive 1 for temp files that will later be burned to dvd or cd (music, movies, games and other media).

Backup drive 2 will be used to keep a ghosted image of my boot drives of my two computers.

SyncBack. http://2brightsparks.com/

Works for me. I have it on all my PC's backing up to my NAS... FREE>

I use it for just a data backup.

I use ghost to image just after I get a pc setup for the first time.
