Backup4all for U3

(1/3) > >>

Curt:
Backup4all for U3 has been released.

This is a portable version of Backup4all that works only on U3 compatible USB devices. If you have an U3 smart USB device, you can install Backup4all for U3 and use it on any computer running Windows XP or 2000.

One important feature of Backup4all for U3 is that it can be configured to automatically run a backup job when the U3 smart USB drive is connected. This means you will simply have to plug-in the U3 USB device to execute a backup job.

Also, they are selling the U3 version for $29.95 if you buy now with an increase to the $40 regular price sometime in the future.  Registered B4All users get 20% off the $29.95 price.  That gets a final price of 23.96.

don't think even regular backup4all has that (? just got it lately myself so still not sure)


also
Statistics
You can actually see how many files are backed up, the total space allocated for the current backup in the destination, how many files will be added at the next execution, what is the available free space on destination and much more.

mind you, for my purposes I had been hoping they would approach it from the other end, so to say -

that the installed version would automatically recognise a particular usb device when attached
and would then proceed to back up to same device

yes, it does that.
But it is really slow. And bk4all it's the single application that I have seen going over 300mb of memory usage.

I'm thinking that for backup, any unix application is more efficient (and free). I'm currently playing with rsync, unison, and box backup. If you don't mind editing a script, it looks like this is the best solution.
