I don't know if this is the most relevant newsgroup for my question but I'll
try here first.
I want to use ntbackup in WindowsXP to back up to a DVD-RW. I know that I
cannot use the DVD-RW as a managed media device because ntbackup simply will
not do this. So, I'll tell ntbackup to write it's backup to a file which
I'll place on the DVD-RW. In this case, it's my understanding that I'll
need software like DirectCD (Roxio) or InCD (Nero) for packet writing in
order to be able to use the DVD-RW drive as if it were like a floppy drive.
If I'm on the right track then all I need to know is, which software - Roxio
or Nero or something else (freeware?) - is most reliable.
If I'm not on the right track then please redirect me.
Thanks very much for any advice here.
