Default Re: Backups

Not a yawn question, in my opinion it's maybe the most important question you can ask. For me it's:

- Carbon Copy Cloner for daily backup of system drive, audio drive and sample drives, scheduled to run at 4AM. Backup drives are on a separate networked computer located elsewhere in the house in case the studio computer rack should catch fire or get damage from water or drunk clients. Carbon Copy Cloner mounts and unmounts network drives before and after backing up, so there is no risk of working from the wrong drive.

- Realtime backup to cloud using Backblaze with 1-year history plan in case of total disaster. It might put a bit extra tax on the system, I have never had any problems with it.

- Local Time Machine backup of system drive.

Still looking for an affordable cloud storage solution for archiving.
