I have some paper work in a folder on my laptop (Windows XP, SP2, MS
Office 2003). Since it contains quite important data and the paper
manuscript being worked on, the folder is copied to a USB stick quite
often in a week's time.
Now, I am wondering if there is a better method to keep a backup of the
folder on to the USB stick? The data is around 120MB. Ideally I would
like an application that compares both folders, the one on hard disk to
the one on USB stick, and copy only the files that have changed and
leave the unchanged files (same files in both drives) alone. This would
really speed up the backup/copying process.
And if there is an option of doing this while the folder on the USB
stick is compressed, that would be even great.
Suggestions? Hints?
regards,
Sam.
