Carbon Copy Cloner
Bombich Software, Inc. – September 2017
Your Documents, Photos and Videos will Stay Safe with Carbon Copy Cloner!
Carbon Copy Cloner creates a bootable backup of your files to an external drive or a networked drive for Mac computers. It's one of the original backup programs, and the many years of testing and updating have helped Bombich create an highly functional and easy to use product.
The tutorial walks you through the process, which is handy if you've never used a backup program before and you are nervous about making mistakes. Simply click to tell the program which disk you want to back up and click again to tell it to which drive you want to save.
The interface puts your most used features front and center, while still making the other features easily accessible. You can customize email notifications to send you the results of various tasks. The task history view shows all of the tasks the program has performed, and you can filter them by name, volume or run date. The advanced settings provides destination and troubleshooting options, and you can set the order in which CCC runs tasks.
You can schedule the tasks you want the program to perform, on an hourly, daily, weekly or monthly basis. You can also chain tasks together for more complicated backup routines.
The Smart Update feature only updates files that you've modified since the last backup. This saves disk space, since it's not updating your entire system every time.
Never fear losing files again in the event of a hard drive crash. Download Carbon Copy Cloner today and keep your important documents, pictures, videos, and other videos safe!
