Hi,

Ill try my best to explain this.
I was wandering if there is a program or someway to make it copy recently added files from a folder on my regular hard drive to a specific folder on my external harddrive?
Example: I add a movie in to my 'Videos' folder is there a way to make that automatically copy on to a 'videos' folder on my external hard drive straightaway?
(Without having to rely on a scheduled back-up)

Thanks so much :)

Hey there frayfray,

One way to do it is using WD SmartWare program. It gives you the option to choose either scheduled backups or automatic backups, which is the one you are looking for. The moment you change something it automatically updates the files in the location where you are dong the backup, as well as many other options. It has a use friendly software and is really easy to use. Here's a link to check it out:

yes so when i paste something into a folder on my internal hard drive it will duplicate it onto my external, except immediately.
no is there any you recommend?
