Backup removable storage.
So I've got SuperDuper! backing up my MacBook's internal drive to a NAS device. That is working perfectly. In the event of a failure I'll have my system up and running in no time.
All of my data, though, is on an external USB drive that I carry with me from computer to computer. I can't seem to find the option in SuperDuper! that will allow me to backup my external USB drive to my NAS device the same way I am with my internal drive. The external only shows up as a destination, not a source. Please help. Thank you kindly, Daniel |
Sounds like your USB drive isn't formatted as HFS+, for the Mac.
|
Oh, that's too bad. This external drive moves back and forth between a Mac and PC so I need it to be FAT. Will it show up if I install MacFUSE?
Thank you. |
No: we can't back up to a Windows formatted drive. Perhaps install PC/Mac drive for your PC?
|
Seems as though ChronoSync does this. I'll have to go with that product. Thanks for your help. :)

Dave, as a paying SD user, I wanted to let you know that I am glad SD doesn't support FAT. I hope you never add support for it. It would do nothing but cause needless coding and problems. SD is for Mac, not Windows. |
It's not something we plan do to: it's hard enough to ensure that copying is done properly for HFS+ -- tripling that effort to add FAT and NTFS support isn't something we're terribly interested in...
