[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 411038, member: 24160"] Yes, everything works and it can update only the changed files. (edit: And yes, as MHC states below, I did purchase the license. Think it is well worth the $28 for such a nice looking / working application and a little peace of mind.) Am no expert on all the options, but I am only wanting to maintain a bootable copy of my primary drive. To do this, just follow the screen shots below. Choose the options as shown in the first screen and these will never change. Of course, you'll have the name of your backup drive instead of mine. The 2nd screen shows the options I used for the first full back up and them booted to this drive to make sure it was functional. After you have verifeid it is working, re-boot holding down the Option key and select your primary drive instead of the back up. Then, to maintain your back up, change the options to match the 3rd screen. This is just a very simple use of SuperDuper. There are many others you can check out if you need more options by reading through the user manual. It is pretty detailed and explains all the other options pretty well.
