I have for long, been searching for the perfect backup software for my Server running Windows Server 2003. I thought I had the perfect software, Uranium Backup. It allows me to do incremental backups to avoid have to backup 1.5 TB each and every night, and only the changed / modified files. Problem is, I have an option in the program to "synchronize" meaning, remove any files from the backup that have since been deleted from the source directory as I am constantly moving files around and do not want 3 copies of the same file in my backup because I have moved them a few times after each backup.
I THINK my best bet, if no one has a better software suggestion to my needs below, is to use something like Acronis True Image , which I believe would save a "current state" snapshot of the system, which would solve my issue of moving files and ending up with copies in different places, as it is a "current" snapshot and only reflects where things are in the present time.
I humbly ask Hard OCP'ers out there to please help me, I'm at my wits end with this one

What I need my backup to do:
- Backup my 1.5 TB of combined storage on my server
- Ability to perform only incremental backups
- sychronize changes, so if I delete a file it does not* show up in the backup
- mail report when backup is finished
