Sorry if I've missed a better thread to discuss this in, but:
Having just narrowly escaped data loss when my Macbook went toppling off the edge of my desk in a backpack full of books, damaging the logic board and screen (despite being padded) but not the hard drive itself, I have a fresh reminder on the need to keep my Time Machine backups regularly updated.
I have a Bootcamp partition running Windows Vista; I gather the contents of this will not be covered by Time Machine. Though most everything I have on the Windows side is Steam games, and so roughly recoverable, I'd still like to find a reliable back up for that side as well if possible. Are there any relatively easy-to-use programs that could do this for me, ideally with a similar set-up as Time Machine that could backup automatically to my external HD?
