[QUOTE="RadDave, post: 1653210, member: 234411"] [B]Jake[/B] & [B]Nick[/B] - thanks for your prompt comments - I have redundant TM and CCC backups, so no need to recover files if a HD/SSD decides to 'go south' - and agree if maybe a third of the cost, I might give it a try, or maybe not? In re-reading the article and looking at the reviewer's 'bottom line' (quoted below), I don't believe that he mentioned the need to have backups - kind of gives a false sense of security to those who have not been doing routine backups - e.g. CCC is only $40 and I'd much rather have my drives cloned & also on TM HDs than try to recover files from a failing one.
