Make a backup of your hard drive?
Hello,
I'm afraid my external hard drive will break at some point and I don't want to save things on my laptop because I have to reset the laptop every now and then and that would take forever.
So I wanted to ask if anyone has any ideas on the quickest way to back up an external hard drive. I'd prefer not to have to file everything twice.
(I will probably buy a second external hard drive)
A cloud would be a possibility, but possibly associated with running costs (depending on the amount of data).
With a second hard drive you can occasionally backup the first backup.
The second hard drive should not be stored in the same building. Always external.
Because if your cabin should burn, you still have this emergency lock.
Otherwise everything would be fuchikato.
You can “close” the plate: http://clonezilla.org/downloads.php
Thank you.
A 1:1 drive copy with a backup software probably went the fastest.
I also had good experiences with rsync under linux.
