Backing up is a pain for me as I use Windows 7, which requires my external hard drive to be physically attached to my laptop for a backup to happen.  The drive is attached to my home network too - very frustrating as it can't be set up to automatically back up stuff

my data is automatically incrementally backed up every few hours. It's completely transparent

Every hour, automatically and incrementally, never have to think about it. But then I do have a Mac and use Time Machine :worried

I use this software on Windows 7 along with a permanently connected  USB 3 external drive.

It works like a charm. Install, setup, forget

Far, far too long ago.
Lots of stuff now I'd be gutted if I lost so now downloading that todo-backup software and will hook up the portable hard drive I bought ages ago - thanks for the timely reminder.

Never, my computer is a toy for me, so nothing much important on it. I copy photos onto pen drives and then remove them from my pc, even though I have 1Tb of hard drive...................
