Back Up to CD-RW

[John]

I want to back up several partitions (it is cheaper than
using RAID)and span several CDs.

Either the program does not recognize the hardware and
the new media, or I get "backup file name (G:\*.bkf)could
not be used." I am using wildcards here.

Something ain't cool here,and I give up trying.

If using Windows own BackUp program, you're out of luck. It doesn't support
backing up to CDs. If you want to use MSBackUp, the only way is to backup to
a hard disk, and then use a 3rd party burner to burn the backup to
CD.....(how to do it with Nero, when it's bigger than 1 CD, I don't know..)
