Copying one external drive to another
Folks,
I am currently running 10.5.1 and patiently waiting for the update. My backup scheme was my whole computer (Intel iMac) to bootable external. And then since my itunes is over 300Gb, I have that on a second external which I backed up to a third external since I never want to rip over 1000 CDs ever again! Since upgrading to 10.5 I've added a number of CDs to iTunes and am getting itchy to get a backup of that drive. Since I don't need to have a bootable drive or anything - I just want an exact copy - each time I completely copy the whole drive, should v82 of SD still work OK in that capacity? I'm willing to try it as long as I can be assured it can't hurt the main iTunes drive. Anyone tried something like this? |

That's right: don't use us with leopard right now. It's not that it won't "copy the files", it's just that the metadata/ownership/etc might not be correct.

For data-only volumes or folders, why not use something like Chronosync?
