Now you tell me I can't do this? Try reading the manual, it is very easy. I have backed up to spare hard drives, diskettes and a VAX. They all work just fine. How would a software company like Dantz try to market a backup product that doesn't support incremantal? That would be slightly ridiculous! Dave Manning
