Does anyone know of any decent backup tools/apps for SBS/Server 2008? The built in backup util is great for external drives, but it doesn't want to play nicely having backups + other files on the 'destination' drive. Was looking at BackupAssist, seems to do what i want (ie: image the OS drive) but wondering if there are alternatives around.

Cheers

Shadowprotect is the business, all of these cost money though.

Just trialing this now and so far so good. Is it possible to mount the images on another system (which has ShadowProtect installed) and view/restore files that way?

Yip, best bit of backup software I've seen in ages.

Can even boot to the image using virtual box.
