I'm afraid that isn't my issue.<br />
<br />
The backup is failing at just over 4gb on a 160gb hard drive.<br />
<br />
There's more than enough room on the drive.

Hi,<br />
I'm running NT backup on Server 2003 which has worked for ages.<br />
Recently the tape drive failed so we replaced it with external hard drives.<br />
Hard drives are formatted in NTFS format but I keep getting the error below as if they were formatted as FAT 32.<br />
<br />
Log file:- <br />
Backup started on 07/04/2009 at 23:34.<br />
End of Media encountered while backing up to non-removable media.<br />
The operation was ended.<br />
Backup completed on 07/04/2009 at 23:46.<br />
Directories: 326<br />
Files: 5050<br />
Bytes: 4,291,158,525<br />
Time: &nbsp;12 minutes and &nbsp;0 seconds<br />
<br />
Any ideas how to resolve?<br />
<br />
Cheers.

NT Backup Keeps Failing

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.

Storage

The term "Backup" means the methods and processes involved to copy computer data (system data as well as application data) to media other than the ones where the data originally live (disk, tape, optical, cloud). "Restore" in turn means the methods and processes involved in data recovery, i. e., bringing back copied computer data to their original location. Backup/Restore primarily serves as a means of protection against data loss, be it due to disaster, corruption or sabotage. It can also be used for recovering data from an earlier point in time and even for cloning machines or applications. There is a wide variety of backup/restore software available, from expensive commercial products to free or open source tools.

Storage Software

Small Business Server (SBS) is a line of server operating systems targeted at small businesses by bundling the operating system with a number of other Microsoft products that would normally need to be purchased or licensed separately. The most notable inclusions are Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint and ISA/TMG (Microsoft's firewall and proxy server).
