Can this be done?

[joemac]

here is my sort of related question.

i know from reading here that sd! is NOT recommended for just backing up a few data files or parts of the home folder, but...

i have 2 large external drives (about 200 gb and 300 gb) with PHOTOS only and VIDEOS only on each.

these are 1000s of raw photos and various compression schemes on one drive in a variety of folders some linked to p'chop and others to iphoto or aperture.

and ~100 full length uncompressed movies (2-7gb each) on the other (video_ts or dvdplayer media documents)

i'd like to make clones of each drive for storage off site.

can i use duper for this?

while TM might do the duty and other 3 party programs might to, i want reliable, accurate and EXACT clones...

thanks dnanian (and others) for your advice.

love the duper!
