Hi, I want to use robocopy for mirroring to my backup drives but see that robocopy is not installed in EX495? How do I get robocopy for my EX495? Has anybody done it?

Thanks

I looked at Robocopy and it was a little to commandline for me so I went with the good old Microsoft Synctoy. Works great!
I sync all my shares to a second server, the only problem I had was when I tried to pair the [users] folder.
I ended up making a folder pair for each user one by one, it would throw an error if I tried to do them all at once. Not sure why, but it was easy enough to work around.

I have it setup as a scheduled task to run every 3 days. Works great.
I also use synctoy to keep a sync'ed backup copy of my work thumbdrive. Just in case it dies.

Goodluck with your copying
