If I missed an obvious one that runs on XT-class
hardware, let me know.
I think I might have a couple to add to your list. I know I have an
earlier version of FastBack that *does* use a proprietary format. I
can shoot you a copy if you're interested.
Very much so; I'd love to add more to the list. If my personal email
rejects your attachment(s), just upload to the /incoming area on
ftp.oldskool.org.
What I would love to test is Central Point Backup (PC Backup?) prior to
version 6, which is the only version I had available to test. Versions
prior to 6 are supposed to contain code that supports the Option Board I
have in my 5160 for additional speed -- however, I'm not sure how much
speedup I could expect, since some of the faster programs in the
shootout must have been operating at a 1:1 intereave (I was writing all
40 tracks both sides in less than 30 seconds per disk; can it get any
faster than that?).
