Fastback, by Fifth Generation Systems, Inc, is a backup utility for DOS. Its key feature is that it can read and write both a floppy disk and hard disk at the same time by making use of dual-channel DMA. Combined with speedy data compression, it can make a very fast backup.
"Fastback Plus" is a rebranding of the original "Fastback" that adds data compression, error correction, DOS file system compatible backup disks, a customizable menu interface, and the ability to back up to any logical DOS drive.
Wanted: Earlier versions - note that early versions are copy protected and must be dumped with a Kryoflux or similar device.
