Need automatic versioned backup to HD program
I need an automatic backup program that creates versioned backups of data.
I'm running Windows 7 64bit
I'm a wedding photographer and I work from home. I live outside of town and only have satellite internet, so on-line based backup is not an option for me because of slow speeds and limited data.
I'm creating an in-house system using external and internal hard drives.
I need to be able to regularly scan 4 - 5 internal drives for changes and update them to a large external drive that gets swapped weekly with another of the same drives for off-site storage.
I'm currently testing the free version of CrashPlan which creates encrypted and compressed versioned backups but the free version only updates the backup once per day. Continuous updating is only available on the paid version. Also, since I'm not going to use the cloud service, I'm thinking it might be a waste to pay an annual subscription.
I'm ok with paying for something, but I want to know if this is the best option.
Here is what I need
- Continuous automatic backup
- easy way to tell if its working through dashboard or something
- versions so that I can recover corrupted or accidentally deleted files
- easy "hot swap" of external drive for off site rotation
