Off topic, but I've got a question/problem maybe Mac users here can help me with. I use Time Machine for backups. It can't backup to more than one target volume at a time. So I've been backing up my internal drive (0.75 TB) using Time Machine to an external (2TB). I also want to backup a 2nd external 2TB to a 3rd external 2TB automatically. They're just stand alone drives, not in any kind of RAID setup. It's a hassle to have to remember to manually point Time Machine at the different origin and target volumes.

So does anyone know of some good 3rd party backup software I can setup in one fell swoop (instead of using Time Machine so awkwardly) that will automatically backup 2 source volumes to 2 target volumes with no muss or fuss?
