Need a back up/restore system suitable
for village idiots to operate with minimal instructions.
(The machines are not in an IT literate environment.)

What I need to do is make backups every night
to a hard disk directory as compressed files
and then once a week back up the lot onto multiple DVDs.

If I need to restore, I should be able to restore
either from compressed files directory or DVD
depending on date.

Anything out there that can do this?
