Retrospect 6 still works well but it has been superseded by Retrospect  
8, which is much improved. You can try it before you pay, but the  
price is over a hundred dollars. It is worth it for anyone who can  
afford it. I have many reliable backups that use Retrospect 6.

I solved my backup problems with a simpler backup system in which I  
use partitions on a 3 hard drives. Using SuperDuper, I make successive  
backups on each partition. This has been extremely reliable, and I can  
test a backup by starting up from a partition. I get the most for my  
money this way. I bought SuperDuper after seeing it successfully used  
by many Mac owners.
