- I have tried various programs, namely Central point backup, fastback as well

- My choice: The original program that comes with the drive is the best!

- The others all have some problem that renders them unusable, beit bugs,
- horrible user interfaces, bad performance etc...

- If you really can't stand the original, try Fastback. Sytos+ is not worth
- the diskette it is shipped on, and the Central point stuff as usual has bugs.
