anyone know an easy way to backup files on win7 - something that would run on auto mode every 7 days or so and just backup new files to an extarnal

Ah. Thanks for the reminder.
*plugs in HD, sets aside half an hour*

what do you use? manual copy/paste?

Aye, I just drop all 'date modified since last time' files into respective folders and leave the process overwrite everything. I keep a working backup on a second local drive as well as a tertiary backup on an external HD, and then usually backups of small but critical files on USB and Server.
If the place gets gutted by fire, I'm not in a great position— but if I 'merely' suffer statistically-probable hardware failure, I should be alright.
I was being quite good in terms of backup regularity, but realise I've slipped these last couple of months. = time to be super careful!
