How do I Back-up SD Card?
OK, so I got SPB Backup. A very nice program that makes executable backups. However, I think it only saves the system data, and not the SD Card. Is that correct? Their web site says nothing about SD Cards or other types of memory. So how do we backup SD Cards without a card reader?
I mean, the cradle gives us a nice USB v2 connection so why not use that instead of buying yet another god-dang do-dad (card reader). My house is filling up with crappy electronic add-ons and do-dads. I refuse to buy another when my PDA has such a good USB connection in the cradle. So, what software will copy the SD card and save it somewhere? Better, why not have software which lets us choose what directories to save on the SD Card. There must be something out there! Thanks for any info.............. ![]() | |||||

SPB Does not backup media cards. Simply back it up to your PC. Connect using ActiveSync and using the Explore feature you can drag your SD card onto your desktop. From there... Burn it to a CD or ZIP and archive it. What ever works for you.
If you have a usb card reader you can insert the card and again copy it to your PC. | ||||

I have used mobsync, now soti controller sync to back up my cards automatically.
Do a google search to get the latest versions of both, soti is a bit pricey but I wouldn't be without it as you can control your PPC and enter data on your ppc with your desktop keyboard and mouse. Great for presentations, long papers, etc. Both work well, no thinking involved, no remembering to do the backup. If something goes wrong you are covered. Periodically I copy these backup folders from my PC to a rewritable DVD and date them as backups. Take Care, Jim | ||||||||
