650 MB is too small

oops forgot about that.

Some CDWR drives will not work for basic file copies.

I hope the Yamaha does because I just ordered one too. Buy.com was sold out but Computer411 had them for 222.95. Shipping not as good as buy.com. They also were out of 4x media, so i'll shop locally for the media.

Who is going to be the 2Copy guiney pig? $30 is the registration fee so a test run is free. My plate is very full right now but I'm interested.

Here's an email response from 2Copy about bootable mirroring. No good for NT..it won't copy the registry. But ok for w98/95. You're still running w95 right?

(email from 2Copy) very prompt

You will have to create a bootable installation from the Windows NT CD. Then you can use Second Copy to copy files to it. However, unlike on Win95/98 Second Copy can not copy the registry on NT. The NT registry has to be copied with special programs. You will have to backup the registry using some other tool.

Subject: Bootable Second Copy

Hi

Could Second Copy be used to create a bootable mirror of the primary installation of NT 4.0 and the apps its running? I want to create another instance of my primary NT install to be used as an emergency backup copy which is somewhat (daily snapshot) in sync with the original.

Thanks

BE seems similar to DI in that it compresses files into one big file.

Thanks for setting me straight on that.
