2 hard drives, one a copy of the other, is it posible?
Hi,
I have Win 7 Ultimate x64, (it's a home PC so I have admin/full access/rights).
I am not 100% sure what the right terminology is but what I would like it to have a constant back up of my 'master' drive.
The idea been that if one drive fails, the computer will auto-magically 'switch' to the other drive, (if the ones that failed was the master).
I would then go to the shop, get a new drive, and, (granted, after a short delay), both drives will be carbon copies of each other waiting for the next failure.
So my questions are:
1- Is it possible with windows 7, (if it is, how can I set it up).
2- What is the correct term of what I am trying to do?
3- If Win 7 cannot do it, could a kind soul direct me toward a tool that can offer such a real time backup?
PS: I know it is possible to have weekly/daily backups, but that does not really offer 'fall-over'. It would still take me an extremely long time to get my system back up and running.
Many thanks
