What Backup Software do you use?

I have recently been using http://www.genie-soft.com/ but I am finding that on Windows 7 64bit it fails more than it actually works.

Wondered what everyone else uses

Microsoft Synctoy is easy to use, reliable and free!

It is possible to use Task Scheduler to automate it too with the correct command line switch.

Acronis

That's what I use, SyncToy runs automatically via Task Scheduler at 9pm every day.

Does it backup everything or just what has changed from the source

Richcopy is good. Thats what i use and it copies fully, 100%.

Just the changes and you can choose whether to remove deleted items from the backup.

None.

I'm fairly good in doing all the work on any photos within a few days of taking the shots.

The folder structure on the external drive mirrors the internal one so about once week I copy over any new folders.

Just downloaded this and running it now on my LightRoom 3 Catalogue for a test

Try Handy Backup, it's reliable software for Windows 7 backup. I have used several backup programs for years, and I recommend Handy Backup.
Hope it will work for you too.

TimeMachine on my MBP to do general HD back-ups, but all my image folders are copied over manually to my back-up image HD and then linked back to LR2
