Wowsa!
Almost done!
Well, when I say done …
Do you remember me writing, yesterday, about re-arranging the various exterior drives, so I’ve effectively got a bigger back-up drive?
Well, I’ve finally managed to get the copying across done!
And managed to use Time Machine to back my main hard drive.
Which took a while, I know that!
Or, I should say, the initial back up tool a while; after all I’ve just backed-up about 75 gigabytes of data.
Now that’s done, Time Machine will — once an hour — do what’s called incremental back-ups; in other words, it’ll only add to the collection of backed up data, as and when it changes.
So that’s the big job out of the way!
•••••
Now, I’m grateful, and lucky, that I’ve got both a Mac, and the exterior drives to use with Time Machine.
But having not used Windoze, I wouldn’t know where to start, software wise; although I’m assuming that the on-board System Restore would work pretty much in the same sort of way.
I know Gwen’s had to use it, I might she if she’d mind putting a comment up …

I love it when someone comments. But, having had anonymous comments I feel may be libellous, actionable or just plain offensive, over the years?
I’d appreciate you* leaving your name — with a link to your website or social-media profile†, for preference — before you post a comment.
Should you choose to use a pseudonym/name, I’d appreciate it if that name were to be polite and inoffensive. I’d rather you kept it clean, and relatively grown up. Comments left with a pseudonym will be posted at my discretion: I really prefer a link.
Contentious, actionable or abusive posts left anonymously will not be posted. Nor will comments using offensive pseudonyms or language, or that are abusive of other commenters.
Thank you.
* I know many value their online privacy. I respect that. But hope you respect my wish to see who’s commenting on my blog: and my wish for you to introduce your self to me, and to your fellow commentors.
