[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1842923, member: 204485"] What about alternatives to TM, CCC and SD? I was going to start a new post on this topic but as we can't at the moment and just to keep conversations rolling I thought I would just tag onto this post; [COLOR=#FFFFFF][FONT=Verdana]For a long time I have recommended bootable cloning software for macOS to my friends and readers in the form of Carbon Copy Cloner from Bombich and SuperDuper from ShirtPocket. I have also mentioned ChronoSync a few times, an off site cross platform app and backup service, well worth looking at if you want to sync/backup your work PC with your home device.[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#FFFFFF][FONT=Verdana]Recently after being very impressed with the function and simplicity of Instal Disk Creator from MacDaddy I decided to test out their flagship app, Mac Backup Guru.
