As a long-time user of SynDiscs I find your new version a big
improvement.  The multi-tasking does not (subjectively) slow the
operation down very much, which I expected it to do.  If I have
the time, I do a 'Compare' after the backup and I wonder whether
you have considered doing this at the same time as the backup? It
seems to me there might be a time saving there.  Another trivial
request is a bleep when the backup has finished.

Brian.
