In Windows 7, lets say I have a "works" directory which containts my work, personal etc information. I want to use a program which always checks the disk and make mirror(s) of this directory. Something like a RAID technology. How can I do that? Thats important, I have now bad sectors....

and does it watch the original directory + mirrored one(s) in the background?– John SmithCommented Dec 31, 2014 at 12:09

1That’s what real-time means. This does not protect you from silent data corruption, however. Get a new disk.– Daniel BCommented Dec 31, 2014 at 12:36

1"RAID" is only useful if you have more than one disk, since that's what it's all about. :) You are describing folder synchronizing.– Ƭᴇcʜιᴇ007Commented Dec 31, 2014 at 13:44

1Yes. It replicate all modifications to the mirrored one. And can maintain previous versions for backup purpose. There are other utilities too. This is another one: DSynchronize: dimio.altervista.org/ita– maudamCommented Dec 31, 2014 at 13:08
