I plug in my external 500GB HD every now & then & drag 'n' drop all the important folders. -Jason |

I've backed up my MAME directory to my NAS, which is then replicated to another NAS. Now to just get an offsite backup. Although, it would probably be a good idea for me to get a bare metal backup of the system. |

I just do a mirror backup using xcopy and task scheduler to my fileserver once in a great while. |

I use robocopy to another computer on the network as well as to a second internal hdd. Robocopy like rsync can be setup to copy just the files that change. |

When it comes to backing up via xcopy to a NAS (IE my fileserver), I generally do a network mapped drive on the computer (say to drive letter Z) for where I want it to go. Then I write a batch file with something along the lines of "xcopy c:\blah\ z:\ /d /e /v /i /c /y /f" to do the work. Not quite as easy as clicking on options, but much more configurable. |
