Tim,

It depends on where you are backing up to. If to floppy disks Diskfit
is more convienent. If your are going to tape then Retrospect would be
a better choice. The programs were developed by the same company named Dantz.

I uses both. I use Diskfit at home and Retrospect at work. 

Diskfit creates a mirror image of your hard disk onto floppies. As files
change, diskfit removes the old version on the floppies and replaces it with
the new file. This feature keeps the disk set from growing and growing.

Retrospect is a "True" (whatever that means) archiving program. Though it
can be configured to do image backups. 

There is also retrospect remote.

I recommend either one highly at our company.

Matt
