Good software solution for backing up files to a NASD?

    Hi all,
    I recently (stupidly I suppose) bought a 'Home Media Network Hard Drive' from Iomega without looking at the system requirements. The software that ships with it is EMC's 'Retrospect' but is NOT compatible with Windows7.

    I set up the drive using an old XP machine and my Windows 7 machine can obviously see it (I have mapped drives in windows explorer to the various folders on the NASD)

    Now I'm just looking for a basic, solid, lightweight and free solution to schedule regular backups from the Windows 7 machine (and my GF's Vista one actually) to the NAS. Any thoughts?

    I was looking at this, what do you guys think? It's just for personal stuff. My work stuff is all svn based to a remote server over the internet so it's just pics and private documents, no big media files etc.
