I've been a user of Fbackup for a few weeks now, and am impressed. I had been fighting with WDSmartware before that, and it just didn't want to play ball at all. Didn't want to recognize a WD External drive, at which stage I gave up wasting time with it. Since installing FBackup, my backups are a piece of cake. Even Nortons360 doesn't provide the simplicity or functionality of Fbackup. I wanted a simple mirror backup - no encrypting, no compressing. I have 2x1TB drives and 1x2TB external Drive (which I use for backups using USB3). Just my data( not including any programs) tot up to just over 1,000,000 files and ~400GB, so my initial backup took quite a few hours with FBackup. Since then however, it backs up any new files in ~15-20 minutes every couple of days. I love it.
What I would like to see is some sort of summation as to how many files and how many MB's/G's have been backed up. Is it possible to have an updating log? A simple text file would be nice.
Also, could it be made to run a simple sound file when completed? I like to usually leave the machine alone while FBackup does it's thing, and would like to know it's completion.
And, finally, can someone please put FBackup in the spell-check dictionary. I keep getting squiggly lines while I type this message up.
Thanks again for a simply brilliant product. I've suggested to Nortons360 they take a leaf out of your book. It's kinda Nortons275 at the moment....
