[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Disk Backup Programs For MS-DOS

cramer@kontron.UUCP (Clayton Cramer) (07/14/87)

I know this subject was asked some months back -- at the time I didn't
have any interest.  Now I'm getting concerned enough to want to backup
my hard disk regularly.  If anyone has a summary of product information
on this subject, I would be very happy to have it emailed to me.

I've been using a couple quick and dirty programs called BACKUP and
UPDATE that I picked off the net a year or two ago.  They work well,
but I need the ability to backup large amounts of data onto multiple
volumes, and restore files later, on a selective basis, and perhaps
into different directories than they originally appeared in.  (This is
why I'm not using the BACKUP/RESTORE program from MS-DOS -- you can
only restore files into the same directory as the one that you backed
the file up from).
