Saving a File(s)

Is there a way to save to multiple drives on the same computer simultaneously? I have a large secondary drive, and when I import my pictures from my camera I would like to have them saved to my main and my secondary drive at the same time (so as to have a backup without haveing to do it after they are all downloaded). I am running XP Pro.....

thanks for any input!

peace
 
If your camera acts as a USB removable storage device (meaning Windows creates a separate drive letter and lists it in My Computer when it's connected), you can write a simple batch file that would copy everything from the camera to both of your hard drives. For example:

@echo Copying everything from drive E: to C:...
copy e:\*.* c:\camera\
@echo Now copying to drive D: as a backup...
copy e:\*.* d:\camera\

This is untested, though.
