[net.micro.mac] HyperDrive 20 and HFS Backups

[Boy I wish I knew how to use VI :-)]

  Does anyone out there have Mac-plusi with HyperDrive 20's?  We recently
got one and are quite happy with it with one exception :-(
 
  The release notes
that come with the HyperDrive go on to tell that one of the "limitations"
of the HyperDrive BACKUP utility is that it cannot backup an HFS drawer.
They go on to suggest that a "workaround" is to copy all of your files to
a MFS drawer and back that up.

  Come on guys, that's really bogus.  What good is a 20 meg drive that you
can't backup?  And just how do you copy an HFS drawer to a MFS drawer and
back that up anyway?  
  
  My question is, does anyone out there that have a BACKUP utility
which is compatible with HFS and the HyperDrive?
