Need advice about my winraid

[Dent0n]

OK, well I have a raid-5 setup running under windows XP. Basically I want something that can give me a 'snapshot' of the volume (just directory structure and filenames) and record it in a text file and email it to my gmail account. It has to be automated and scheduled as I'll just forget to do it if it has to be done manually.

Is there such a program out there? I just want a way of knowing exactly what I had in the event of a complete system failure or 2 drives dying at the same time so I can at least recover as much as possible.

Could you use a batch file with the old "dir" command using the /S operator (include subdirectories) piped ( | ) to a text file that gets executed by the scheduled tasks function in Windows?

You can see what the syntax of DIR is by issuing a "DIR /?" command from the CMD prompt. If you can get DIR to dump the output to a text file and can set up a command line based email client that could script the attachment and sending of the file you could do the whole thing as a daily scheduled task in XP fairly easily.
