I haven't tried it yet, but I am going to use 3rd party sync software (Goodsync) to sync my work drives with the pp drives at home. Sync software is cheap and good enough in my mind. If it works with pp.

First let me say that after a bit of a rough start, I've got my Pogoplug working pretty much as I had wanted. My primary purpose in purchasing the device was to set up a networked drive for my wife who routinely has to work with large files from both work and home. Carting them via thumb drive has proved to be inconvenient and insecure, so Pogoplug seemed like the best answer, particularly the Active Copy feature.
So I set up an active copy from C: to P: and that seems to work just fine. My question though is whether it would be possible to set up a similar active copy from P: to C: so that my wife could maintain local copies at work and at home automatically, using the P: drive as a bridge, effectively. Any thoughts?
Second, I've looked around and it doesn't seem to be possible to set up a timed regular backup to the P: drive through Windows. Maybe I'm wrong, but Windows doesn't seem to recognize the P: drive as a networked drive and I can only access it as a drive through the desktop client. Am I missing something?
