Hi Svobi,

On the main machine it takes about 3-1/2 hours to xcopy everything and
another 3-1/2 hours to xcomp (compare/verify) everything. The four
drives are all IDE PIO4 with busmastering *but* the Primary Master is a
rather old 2 GB drive (Dani's utility says it's "Mword" whatever that
is) -- faster drives would speed things up somewhat.

I want to add a backup server to the network. I own Back Again/2000
Server but don't use it.
