I'm looking for recommendations on software to backup files from my pc to an external HD. I'm not looking to image the drive or anything like that. I just want something simple (and of course preferably free or cheap) that I can setup once and run from time to time to back up files from a home pc (so we're talking pics & videos from a digital camera, excel spreadsheets, etc) to an external drive. I'm running Win 7 on the pc (currently RC, moving to retail upgrade this month).

What do you use? What do you recommend?

Backup exec, is really good. But not free.
