I set up Cobian backup following advice from DJSigma(thanks) and set up a task to back up all of my data drive to an external hard drive (NTFS drive, via USB2.0 through a VIA USB3.0 card)
but the problem is once the back up starts, after a little bit the USB card will seem to turn itself off and the external drive will not be recognized by windows any more. if i restart my computer it comes back, until i try to run the back up again. The error i get in the Cobian log is "The system cannot find the file specified"
Any ideas?
Here are the settings i used on Cobian version 11(otherwise its on default):
Code: Select all
Use file attribute logic
Use Volume Shadow Copy
Incremental
Scheduled to run weekly every sunday
Normal Priority
make one full every 4 backups
Always create top parent directory
Clear Archive attribute
