How to make easy backups on multiple CDs?? - GoFuckYourself.com

Do any of you know for a software that can backup large quantities of files on CDs by splitting the backup in to separate CDs and then burn the CDs one by one?

Sure I can do it by hand but it's a real pain and time is money so I rather pay for a software that can do it all with a press on the button.

I would assume that any burning software would do this.

I was assuming that too, but I couldn't find anything useful in my burning programs.

Just try burning all the files as you would a normal CD.

After the 1st CD is done it should tell you to insert a new one.

Nope, burning like that didn't work.

Get an external USB2.0 enclosue plus a hard drive to put in. Back up 20 gig in less than an hour unattended.... Great value, reusable, no lost cd's, no order of cd's to maintain.

CD are gpod for archiving let's say a model photos, vidclips...

Backups = hardrives

CompUSA has some great prices now on USB 2 backup hard drives. Way easier than burning CD's and less expensive in the long run.
