Raid and Time Machine

Awesome ;-D

I have Carbon Copy Cloner and Time Machine. I would like to automate the nightly process of cloning individual folders from my RAID 5 onto 2 internal drives on my Mac Pro.

Is there a software program that can do this?

I can happily do it manually but it just would be nice to have that security of knowing the folders were copied automatically were I to forget.

First off Peter its not to nice to thread jack somebody else’s thread with your own question, especially a old thread like this one.

[peter dunphy] “I would like to automate the nightly process of cloning individual folders from my RAID 5 onto 2 internal drives on my Mac Pro. “

[peter dunphy] “I have Carbon Copy Cloner”

Perfect solution right there. there is a schedule backup feature in CCC.

There are no “technical solutions” to your “artistic problems”.
Don’t let technology get in the way of your creativity!

Hi Zane

I actually went to the effort to seek out the old thread as I felt my question was related! I certainly didn’t intend to ‘hijack’ the thread as you stated – I merely wanted to chip in with what I thought could have been a related question for the thread.

In future I’ll be sure to create new threads if I have any new questions of my own.

Apologies for any offence caused!
