[Electronics-talk] accessible backup software for windows

Hey Everyone,

It depends on where Lori wants to put her backups.  If she wants to
backup to an external disk, or perhaps CDs, this Jude's suggestion is
a really good one.

If Lori wants to backup her data to a cloud storage provider
(Google Drive, sky drive, dropbox, etc.) then Jude's solution still
works with some fiddling and configuring.

However, if Lori wants an end to end solution, such as carbonite or
crashplan, then Jude's solution doesn't really fit.  The question
would become does anyone know of any end to end backups solutions that
areaccessible? I'm afraid I don't know one way or the other.

Lori, can you talk more about what kind of backup solution you're
looking for?

Does anyone know if any of the consumer grade end to end backup
solutions are accessible?

Thanks,

Jim
