hi i have read the comments and all comments seem interesting.<br />

larry - states some good points so I am wondering as presumably it will still allow everything I require at least.

hi i am using win 7 and wish to move my data from my 300 gb partition that is full and put it onto another external device that i can continue to add to do/allow the following:<br />
<br />
- access my data at home from an external location<br />
- vmware capable<br />
- maybe raid instead of cd's<br />
- allowed to also save dvd's, files, music letters - all types of stuff<br />
<br />
win 2008 domain:<br />
<br />
- i have a win 2008 domain and it would be nice if i could also connect to the same external backup device also or at least if i am not using it via my standalone laptop, i could then join it to the domain and copy files to it and vice versa

backup recommendation advice

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.
