Windows equivalent to Mac Time Machine?

"Symantec Ghost would be the best suitable software.

"With Windows Home Server, you get automated daily, weekly, and monthly aged backups. (Time Machine also does hourly.) It is intended to completely restore a system if necessary, even making easy-to-access copies of necessary drivers to do so.

One difference is that instead of buying just an external drive, it requires a whole server box, although they are intended to run headless, so it's not that much more expensive. The integration for ""going back in time"" for individual files is not there; you have to view the entire old backup and poke around.

But as a server box, it will backup everyone on the network (sorta like Time Capsule). It provides an expandable pool of storage -- just add a drive -- and storage redundancy, putting copies in more than one place if possible. It is also intended to be a central media/document server for multiple users."
