We need to scheduke daily back ups of certain folders to an external
USB drive. When we look at the folders (directory tree) on the USB
drive we want it to match the source tree. We do not want a compressed
file format on the destination. We would want to be able to take the
USB drive to another computer and access through Windows Explorer the
files that were backed up.

Can anyone recommended such a software?

Thanks

The UI is pretty primitive, but it does work.
