thanks Ken,

I am reading now about BackupEDGE. Very nice functions are built-in really. Seems to me that it makes new backup (with differential files and folders) only if the prewius backup was done with BackupEDGE already. Am I wrong?

I have a backup burned on DVD (with folders and files selected in the K2b). Now, I would like to make a new backup with new files and folders. Will Backup Edge do the job this time too?

I'm almost positive tar will accept a "newer than" date. Then anything created/modified since that date is backed up. There is no dependency on the earlier backup being via tar.
