Hi Andy,

I also back up to my second hard drive, and boot from it when needed! (That
sure is a handy way of avoiding the "busy files" problem!) I have been
doing it using a different utility but plan to start using XXCOPY for that
purpose. But I also want to use CDRW for backup and archive.

Maybe the word "disk" (or "floppy disk" or "writable CD", depending on what
is used) would be better than "volume", but I suppose anybody who can handle
XXCOPY knows what a "volume" is!
