Hey all.

Recently I have installed a cloud-server onto my personal machine. Hoping to store some photos and being able to access them onto my phone.

Though, since I am hosting my own content I do want a data safety net. I was wondering how would I go about backing up specific folders so there's the same folder on a different drive. So when one of either folder is edited, content added or removed that it will also be changed in the other drive.

I can't seem to find a good software for this.

Thanks for any help!

2 applications:

1. FreeFileSync. Point it a source and target, and it will make both folders the same. It also has a RealTime function. Make a change in Folder A, and it automatically makes the change in Folder B. alittle bit of a pain to set up, though.

2. I was recently turned on to SyncBackFree. Works very well. Set up a source and target (or multiples of both) and on schedule, it copies stuff over.Same PC, different PC on the LAN...wherever. Whatever schedule you designate.
