What Copying Not Imaging Prog To Interval Backup My Data ?

Hi,
I was running raid 1 for 3 yrs on my internal HDDs data drives, (two pairs, and a SSD for C drive) (C drive is Acronis backed up by the way) as a safety net for if a HDD failed, the raided one had the exact same files and folders on it. A recent memory stick failure knocked it all out of sync, 1 week copying files off, then format all HDDs, then resynch, and it put up a fight, got new raid card, was sick from birth, so two lots of copying onto PC, 1 month of hell, so I ditched the raid !

I have paired HDDs, same make size etc as a result of the raid, same size partitions on both, one has two partitions each 1.5Tb, another pair are four partitions, 3 of which are 580Gb. All formatted and functional in the good old basic PC way now !

Now to use a software to write to the 'backup' partition for each of my 6 partitions, every so often, just as raid did, but obviously not every millisecond !
Backup can mean an image, all files scrunched into one and the prog that did it is required to view the contents. I DONT WANT THAT. Should that prog and company fold, I am stuffed, happened to me twice.
I want it as if it was copy paste !

I need a prog to append/incremental (call it what you will) files and folders from my 6 partitions across to the other six partitions every 15mins or 30mins, whatever the shortest intervals are. And not interfere with the performance of my PC. If I delete a file I want it to delete that file on the recipient drive, so both drives data matches. Likewise if I update a file, it must update the same file on the recipient drive. So e.g. D drive has O drive as its backup, and both contents match.

I dont want compression, this is not a backup image, its cloning the files and folders. I should be able to remove the recipient HDD and view the contents on another PC that doesnt have the copying software installed.

WHAT PROGS WILL DO THIS PLEASE ?

I am win7 64bit pro, Windows inbuilt software for this is too large an increment, 1 day, 1 week 1 month. damn shame that.

once you set it up, syncback should do the trick. i just don't know what intervals it's scheduling allows.

good luck with it.

 

Another vote for SyncBack Free. Has everything you need. Multiple backup jobs can be set up in profiles, each with its own schedule.

EDIT - the minimum schedule interval is 1 day, but if that's no good maybe take a look at the paid version.
