I use Carbon Copy Cloner manually every week or so for back-up. Tried retrospect but it seems more complex than I need. The most I can lose is a week's stuff, thats the most i gamble with and the odds seem very low.


SuperDuper is pretty cool, and makes backups that are bootable a breeze.


Onyx does all the system level stuff, again about once a week. The machine isn't on all the time so I think the cron jobs will be missed (is this correct or will it do them after starting up?)


I have it, but never found a use for it. Unneeded.

Is this because the cron jobs run when you leave it on, or do you switch it off and if so do they run anyway when you are running the computer? Why is it 'unneeded"?
