Difference between Burning and Backup software

wrote: what does backup software that uses CD or DVD does that is different or in addition to what regular burning software does? NTI's Backup Now uses packet-writing to write CDs. That is very different from what most burning software does. See "what is packet-writing" at http://www.cdrfaq.org/ I had poor results writing cds with NTI (hangs/crashes/hardware lockups), but I'm using a cheap cd burner that's not supported by many programs. As Mike explained, a good backup program allows you to make backup copies of operating system files that cannot normally be touched while the system is running. |
