Back up hard drive

[gotrich]

Is it possible to use a external hard drive to store hoster on? The problem arises in I have to different set of equiptment. Speakers disk etc. I have 2 computers. Can I make and external drive to use on the 2 pcs if one fails? or will the backup drive be married to the pc that i install the stuff on at teh time of instalation? Basicaly I want to use the external drive interchangeably between either pc.

Hope I am not cornfuzing you all..LOL

your allowed to put hoster on 2 computers with only one license.

Or you could use norton ghost to clone your exsiting hard drive to a new hard drive as back up. this way if one crashes, just unplug it and plug in the back up, and off you go !!

hmm I thought It was 3 hard drives? I have hoster on 2 pc's now. I thought I could take the 3rd install and put it on 1 external drive so i could use it incase either pc went down?

just use nortons ghost, it clones hard drives without reformatting.

How do I do that. I looked at my norton and coudl not figure it out?

Does MTU offer a license or something? For example say I have 2 pc's and I am running 2 shows...which I assume is ok. can I get a license for a 3rd pc to use as a back up pc or do I have to buy hoster again for the 3rd pc I may never use?

you are allowed 1 show per license. your not suppose to use the back up for an additional show.


norton ghost is easy, just use the cloning option. it has a wizard and only takes about 10 minutes.
