Keeping two computers synced up

It also sounds like a Windows Home Server would be a better choice for you than a second computer.

Hmmm,

Is a home server a complicated thing? I don't want to get in over my head. I am a user but have no IT skills.

No, that's the point of the product. It lets you set up a server for storage, backup, streaming, etc without any server/IT skills.

Thanks,

I will check that out.

I believe the new version costs around $60 USD, and can even be made to run on an older computer.

I will do some reading on that option. Thanks a bunch.

How about using an external HD?, this way you do not have to about viruses and can update the files that you use as you need.

I like Syncback for keep multiple runtime folders synchronized between to machines, and for doing backups. Might be something to look into.

Free backup software - SyncBack Freeware - free data backup software

Good luck,

I know how you want to keep the two computers synced together, What I mentioned earlier was just a suggestion and thought it might be easier to keep your files protected. Just a thought thats all. Should I want to sync multiple computers together I will remember what was mentioned on this post as I learned something knew. Thanks for the lesson.
