Hello everyone!

How do I backup data/programs/everything stored on my SD Card? Can I just use ActiveSync and the explorer to copy everything to the HD of my PC or will this corrupt the data when restoring it back to the SD Card later? If so, how else could I backup?

I searched the forum, but did not find any topic concerning this, please forgive me if a solution was posted before.

Thanks for any help,
Max

Yes, you can copy the files in SD card when you attach your XDA to your PC via ActiveSync. But it's really slow, since we got USB 1.1 only...

If you're using a notebook, it is better to buy a PCMCIA adapter to do this, or if your PC have a USB 2.0, you may want to buy a USB 2.0 card reader.
