johnbentleyii Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 I had attempted setting up a single backup set with recylcing and it was a headache to say the least. Rather than fight the nature of Retrospect, I have set-up a backup to USB Hard Drive and am making a snapshot copy to the Removable Hard Drive. I am still early in the process. Any thoughts on this scheme? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is quite easy to set up, so I'm kind of glad you didn't succeed. The minute you recycle, you have NO BACKUP at all. What if you get a hard drive crash or fire or flooding or anything at that moment? You should ALWAYS have at least one full backup off site. I have set-up a backup to USB Hard Drive Same problem here. When you bring that single drive back into the office, you have NO BACKUP off site. You at least two drives and alternate between them.
