Re: Backup software for the Mac

[Gordon Christie <homeautomation@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I can recommend Synk at www.decimus.net/synk/ - it works well for
synchronising two directories (I use it to keep a folder on my Mac
synchronised with my uni home drive over SMB).

If you're a student, you can also get a free license for it. Otherwise $20
for non-commercial use, $40 for commercial use.
