We all know that we should be backing up regularly, and yet we rarely take the steps necessary to ensure the safety of our data. I recently came across enough time to get a piece of software set up that I have been meaning to for the last year or so. I have set up Chronosync to back up whenever the notebook is connected to the network. It compares, and then backs up any changes found in the photos library to a drive attached to the Airport Extreme.
Now as we all know, there really isnt a backup unless there’s more than one, so I have set up another Chronosync job on the theater machine to notice the update on the network drive, and back that one up to another offsite share.
These jobs are scheduled to run completely on alternating days as well. So far, so good. Those of you without an established backup plan might benefit from taking a look at Chronosync.
