Paragon Backup & Recovery 16 is a very comprehensive backup tool with a vast array of professional backup and disk management features.
The program can back up a hard drive's master boot record, its first track, individual partitions or complete drives, for instance. It can also run file-based backups on the files and folders you specify. You can run a quick backup of your documents, music, videos, music or other media files. And there's even an E-mail backup, that will save your messages, accounts and address book (Outlook, Outlook Express and Windows Mail are supported).
grabbed this the other day and it's not as good as previous versions. it was fairly simple to make a seperate, bootable recovery CD in version 14 but this seems to have done away with that idea in favour of making it USB only

Just installed this v16 and backed up my C drive but for some reason the backup is 160GB compared to the source drive which is using 120GB out of 240GB ?
Presume its trying a raw backup.
Anyway I looked at the Recovery Media Builder and it gives you the option of USB or ISO so you can burn your own cd :smiley:

Unbelievably slow backing up to NAS and dumbed down too much. Deleted before even checking if they fixed the problems in 14 that made me drop it (not recognising drives, flaky network access etc.)
AOMEI standard or Macrium Reflect free (if you don't need differential backups) are better.

Can anyone suggest an incremental copy tool that also does versioning of updated files in a folder, to a destination such as NAS? Am currently using sync toy.

It's asking for a code when I start the software.

Code should have been emailed to you, when you created the account. May not work if you already have one, so just create another. TIP: if you have a gmail.com account, just use googlemail.com suffix to create the account, and it will come to your gmail.com account.

Sussed it. For some reason, it was FireFox. I pasted the link into Chrome, and it worked a treat.

This might be good, but it doesn't install on Windows Home Server 2011 unfortunately.
