Hello,

I have a folder called d:\dbs I want to mirror it so in the event the d
drive crashes the files are accessible via e:\dbs how can I accomplish this?
Also is there a way to mirror the entire system drive ie c:\ so in the event
that it dies I have a fail over pointing to another mirror ie f:? Thanks in
advance.

To mirror an entire disk, follow the instructions in this MS Knowledge Base
article:

http://support.microsoft.com/?id=302969

Both drives will have the same drive letter, though. Also, mirroring is
only supported in Server versions of Win2000.

You could use the built in backup program to perform a backup to disk daily
of your important folders. This would give you the ability to restore them
when you have the need.

Best regards

Bjorn
