GoodSync - Saw a few people recommend GoodSync when researching ChronoSync vs CCC.

That means I could backup my wife's MacBook Pro that I have currently backing up to her own TimeMachine external drive then going to Backblaze.

Not sure how many times per day would be ideal.Ĭarbon Copy Clone - It doesn't sync, but it's a pretty automated backup solution and seems like 1 license allows you to install it on multiple machines in your house. So I could simply schedule a sync from OWC to WD on a daily schedule. Software solutions I'm considering: I've read a ton of posts about each on here on Reddit in various sub forums but still not sure what would work best for my particular setup.ĬhronoSync - It's a sync client, has a nice schedule. So a sync would keep folders and such in multiple places. I don't have enough of a understanding of backups and cloning but I don't think I need that to be bootable. If one of my NVMe's goes bad, I lose everything. What are the pros and cons of each? I know my current RAID 0 setup is very prone. Now whether I do that via backup or file sync is the real question. Right now, I know I want to duplicate everything on the OWC 8TB to the WD Black 8TB. B2 Cloud storage just isn't in the budget right now. Now that I have the OWC, I've copied everything from this drive to the OWC SSD setup.Īll of the above is backed up to Backblaze via a Personal Backup plan. WD Black D10 HDD 8TB - Before the above ^^ OWC setup this was my storage place for work I didn't have to access or needed the speed for. I also have that same 1TB of data included in my TimeMachine Backup. On this I have about 1TB of important or readily accessed data syncing to pCloud. As soon as the budget allows, I'll pick up two more 2TB sticks and change the setup to a RAID 6 setup (I think this is the way to go). OWC Mercury Pro U.2 Dual 8TB (6TB used) - (4) WD Black SN850 NVMe M.2 2TB sticks setup in a RAID 0 configuration via SoftRAID. On this Mac Studio I have 1 folder (300GB) syncing to pCloud.

Mac Studio Ultra 1TB (600GB used) - Backed up to a 5TB LaCie HDD via Time Machine.

Though the revision part isn't the main objective From time-to-time perhaps pull an older revision. Goal: Protect my data and actually be able to recover it. I feel I have a pretty good grasp on technology but looking for advice from those with more experience. 10+ years ago I worked in the corporate IT world. I'm a professional photographer but am now transitioning to doing more video extensive work.
