Subject: [9fans] OT: how do 9fans backup their Mac(book)?
Date: Fri, 30 Sep 2011 17:19:26 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <7828850E-D4E3-4621-B425-98423B95E1C4@cs.utwente.nl> (raw)

Just curious what 9fans use, for home and/or work, to backup their macs.

time machine?
to a local (usb,firewire) disk?
or remote (time capsule, nas (not officially sanctioned by apple))?

or eat our own dog food and use eg. venti?
or tra?

or no backup necessary because everything important is already elsewhere?
(in the cloud, or in a version management system)

or?


context: we are reconsidering how to do this at work,
and prefer not to reinvent the wheel.

(at home I just backup my mac to a readynas box using time machine).


Sorry for the off-topic nature of this post, but the fact
that 9fans will be aware of less-common solutions like venti -
not to mention the presence of coraid people here -
made me look for experience/expertise here.

Regards,
Axel.
