    Using Truecypt & Second Copy to backup media


    I have already made my "Outer Volume" on my back up HDD with Truecrypt & now using Second Copy to copy my main media HDD to my backup HDD.

    Once I copy the data & am then going to create the "hidden volume" option Truecrypt offers.

    How will this sync up with Second copy?

    If it makes a difference in syncing second copy I would also like to set up the main media HDD the same way with the Outer volume & hidden volume options. So keeping it a perfect encrypted sync if possible.

    Hoping someone who was familiar with both programs could help, it could take me hours digging through their help section trying to find an answer to this question...
