All you have to do is drag and drop all your folders and files to that drive.

My 6GB takes about 20 minutes, incremental would take seconds. I want it automated and every day - so I can get on with other things.

You can install individual files from a backup even though the backup appears to be a single file

Sure, but I would prefer not to be tied to the software package. Perhaps I'm asking too much, I may just settle for a package that creates a proprietary file format.

...create a virtual duplicate of your current harddrive

OOOooo It would be very nice to have an incremental backup of my entire hard drive, every day. I prefer incremental because that would be so much faster. Does Retrospect do this?

If the Dog eats my PC I want to be up and running within 24 hours with yesterdays data.
