I don't know if RescoBackup is free or not, but I sure know that BackupBuddy
would cost for little added value. If Laurent's suggestion is not
sufficiently good, be sure to have a look at an SD card-based backup
application called Red Feline Backup:

Don't be deterred by the name. I have happily used it for years. It just
mirrors your RAM/ROM, thus putting everything in two places.
Hope it helps,
Roy
