Ok, so... I bought a TS-109 from QNAP with a pre-installed 500Gb Seagate disk. It's lovely and shiny and all works well.

Unfortunately the backup software supplied with it "sucks wiener" as they say in America. It just does a bulk copy to a NAS share and doesn't even have the option to only copy modified files, much less anything more sophisticated. Over the weekend, I tried to install a couple of backup packages that I found via Google, but got nowhere with either of them (one needed > 600Mb free on my system disk - WTF??? - and the other (from 2BrightSparks) appeared to install correctly but refused to run, giving an 'incorrect configuration' error).

Any recommendations for free / US$50-ish Windows XP backup software that will write to a NAS box, allow scheduled incremental / differential backups, etc etc?

Thanks!
