[QUOTE="jeltekalkman, post: 920225, member: 123821"] that depends on which OS your running, wether its Mac OS Tiger or Leopard(s), Windows ore Linux, for leopard or snow leopard my recomandation is really Time Machine.. or else apple automator scripts (I'll explain if needed) For windows a third-party application but I'm not into windows, so can't help you with that, same goes for Linux. Here's Leopard or snow leopard situation (on mac mini) if you have an airport extreme, buy a simple USB-hub, just make sure its high speed! connect all the HD's, Sticks or whatever you desire to the HUB from there, On your Mac mini go to finder, open a new screen, in the left column select your airport extreme, the plugged in data locations become visible connect the one you desire to use for backup on your mac mini. the drive schould connect now. open time machine preferences, select the connected disk. that's your mac mini configured. for your powerbook G4, you need applescript (or automator in newer os) you can use automator to very easily write folder-actions, there should already be an automatic backup script. However, if you need more help on the apple scripting bit, i can walk you trough it. hope it helps for you. [/QUOTE]
