    I formatted my external drive and got this result. Problem is I cannot format the disk every time I want to do a backup. This was using Windows 7 backup.

    Give Acronis or Easeus a shot.
    You will be pleasantly surprised.
    I will.

    Have to wait for when this stinking cold that I have gets better.

    Best free backup software and Norton Ghost alternative - EaseUS Todo Backup Free

    Keeps giving a verification code error.

    Thanks again.
    Try the link I gave you.

    When it asks you to name a path - click browse and pick your external hdd.
