Time Machine AFP


Recommended Posts

I'm curious why you guys want time machine backups in the protected zone at all. Why not add a disk via SNAP to use for time machine backups. They are after all backups of data you already have and maintain on another machine.

 

Unless you're like one of my consulting clients who was using time machine as an extended file cabinet "oh i just delete stuff I'm not using 'cause it's in Time Machine."

I've found my time machine volumes (usually USB drives) on my macs corrupt themselves and have to be reformatted and started from scratch about once a year.  Thus I don't use time machine for version control, I either save numbered versions and keep them or use GIT. I guess I'm just old school in that the only backup I really care about, is the most recent one.
