My SilverKeeper system was working great for months backing up my NAS drive to a folder on a large FireWire drive. Every day, started at 2:00am, 34 gigs, thousands of files, no problems.
Lately it quit working -- it backs up the first few hundred files and says something like "Backup failed - System Error (-50)". The machine doesn't crash, it's just an error message in a dialog box from SilverKeeper.
I haven't seen a System Error since OS 9. What's -50?
I've reinstalled SIlverKeeper, reassigned the backup source and destination from scratch, rebooted, Disk Utilitied...and no change.
It seems to works fine on a non-NAS drive backing up my Entourage data--much less data, just a handful of files.
The SIlverKeeper website says "compatible up to and including 10.4.8...we have not completed our testing on 10.4.9..."
Anybody else have problems like this? What's an NAS-compatible alternative?
