kudos:1 | 2.5" USB with programmable button Can someone recommend a good external case for a 2.5" laptops drive that has a programmable button? I'm trying to setup a PHD device so our non-tech users can walk up to a server, attach a drive, press the button on the drive, and the backup files from the night before will be replicated to that drive.
I just need the button to launch a replicator program like Karen's Replicator.
Thanks.

kudos:1 | Re: 2.5" USB with programmable button Thanks, but I'm looking for a portable enclosure as there are four of them rotated on a weekly basis. I just need the enclosure to have a button that will launch as replicator program to copy specified files to the drive.

1 edit | This adapter - »kingwin.com/products/cate/access···2535.asp - handles all the types of HDDs. It has "One Touch Backup" (a button on the adapter), but I don't know how much configuration ability it has, as I use another process to do the backups. If you want, I can install the OTB software and give it a peek.
Edit: I installed the software and it has quite a bit of ability for OTB backups. |
