I am looking into purchasing Super Duper but it looks like the options to copy will ERASE and then COPY for the initial backup and subsequent "smart" updates.

I have my entire music collection (over 200 CDs) manually backed up to Apple Lossless format on my external (bootable) firewire drive. I do NOT want to move this over to my iMac before EVERY backup, even the first.

Is there a way to have Super Duper backup (regardless of the type) WITHOUT doing a full erase of my external FW drive!?

Apple's backup program let's me backup to a folder on the FW drive (labeled "Backups").
