best software for backing up win7 system?
 

What are people using?

If you just want to back up some data files you could look at an online backup like mozy.com. Free for the first 2GB.

WIn7 has it built in, just use a external drive

I just went last week and picked up a Seagate 1.5TB external drive and it has a backup feature on it and it backed up all of my things in just a little while. I have a hard drive and possibly a cpu failing and had to move fast.

It backs it up every night at 10:00 PM for me.

I use a Netgear ReadyNas and Acronis True Image.

Can't say enough good things about both.

I use Acronis True Image on an XP system with external drives on the network.

Critical files/folders back-up every 4 hours.

Very configurable and I know my data is now a lot safer than before

Yeah I got a 2tb Fantom Drive that I got for $110 online at Tigerdirect and couldn't feel safer about it

win7 can back itself up...

Acronis finally got it right with this last version. I use it for Win 7 64. Perfect.
