Does anyone have any recommendations for good backup software? My use case is pretty simple. I have an external usb drive I want to backup to every so often. Both the source and backup drives are 8TB capacity (I’m not even close to using the full capacity yet)
Normally the backup drive is left unplugged but I want to be able to plug it in run the backup software to copy across anything new then unplug it again for storage.
Simple file backup (not looking to do a full bootable OS drive backup or anything)
Thank you
Don’t you have to reboot into it to use it and set up the backup manually every time? That seems like a pain to do daily/weekly.
Yeah you do have to do that. I don’t backup as regularly as I should. But I use it to make full disk images (including the partition table). Do the other popular ones allow this?
Veeam does for sure on a live system, I’ve also used macrium before. But I don’t know if any FOSS projects are that advanced.
