Hello,<br />
<br />
I have a Windows Server that is running 2008 R2, and there are a couple folders that I want to backup. &nbsp;I would like to keep an archive of these folders and files and have it backed up everyday and have them over written once a week, so basically I would have folders for Monday-Friday. &nbsp;I know there are a few options and I am trying to find the easiest, most cost effective one. &nbsp;I use to use NTBACKUP on our older servers and that worked perfectly, but now that has been replaced by Windows Backup, but that only backs up the partitions that I want once, and over writes it each time. &nbsp;I am not a fan of Symantec Backup Exec, and I am not too familiary with the X Copy commands. &nbsp;Basically I am looking for an NTBACKUP type solution for Windows Server 2008 R2. &nbsp;What would you recommend?<br />

Hello,

Windows Server 2008 R2 Backup Folders

Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2, based on the Microsoft Vista codebase, is the last 32-bit server operating system released by Microsoft. It has a number of versions, including including Foundation, Standard, Enterprise, Datacenter, Web, HPC Server, Itanium and Storage; new features included server core installation and Hyper-V.

Windows Server 2008

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.
