You're lucky you got any software at all!  Early SCSI card purchasers
didn't.

Apple's Backup II program used to be marketed as a separate product.
Recently I've seen a revised version posted on various information
services (I think CIS, ALPE, and Genie).  I don't know what all the
revisions were; I think the current release is Rev. 1.1.1.

Backup II does work -- I've used it on my HD20SC.
