Backup Batch File

For MBR disks the maximum size 2TB, you need to use GPT for anything larger, so that means that the NAW device doesn't read GPT disks...oh well. Another option would be getting a cheap Zotak or Intel NUC type PC to use as a home server. Or replace the router

You brainy gurus kill me with your acronyms! MBR, GPT, NAW NUC, Of course being in Mississippi I know what naw is; naw, I ain't going to do that! But the rest of those are just killing me. I even had to Google NAS!:nerd:

MBR - Master Boot Record (This was the standard for disks 2TB or smaller)
GPT - GUID (Global Unique Identifier) Partition Table Disk (Newer Standard can address disks larger than 2TB)

Intel NUC - New Unit Computer (looks like a small cube)

Well I was out so I just picked this up at Best Buy for $129. Amazon.com: Seagate Central 2 TB Shared Storage Ethernet External Hard Drive (STCG2000100): Computers & Accessories

I figured the wife and I can backup to this automatically and I can have my Seagate 3TB drive that I drag and drop her folder and my folder onto about once a month. That way we will have a backup of the backup. We do have a lot of pictures of our 3 year old granddaughter and another grandchild on the way!:big smile:
