Carbon Copy Cloner 3.0
ftp://ftp.mesd.k12.or.us:21//pub/mac/ccc3.0.dmg
Bombich Software today released Carbon Copy Cloner 3.0, a new version
of the essential Mac OS X backup and restore utility, which is
distributed as uncrippled shareware, compatible with Mac OS X "Tiger":
The new version features a new interface designed to make the cloning
and backup procedure more intuitive and more responsive. Users have
better control over what gets backed up, and are provided with
detailed information about the progress of their backup. The new
version also provides support for block-level clones, a cloning
method that is unsurpassed in providing data fidelity.
The synchronization feature received the most attention in the
update. Previous versions required the download of additional third-
party software. Version 3.0 includes an optimized version of rsync,
an open source utility that provides fast incremental file transfer.
By leveraging rsync for incremental backups and synchronization,
users get the highly anticipated feature of network backups.
The scheduling functionality of Carbon Copy Cloner also received a
make over. Backup tasks can now be scheduled on an hourly, daily,
weekly, or monthly basis, or you can indicate that a backup task
should run when the backup device is attached. This is especially
useful if you use your iPod for backup. Carbon Copy Cloner will
actually recognize iPods as well, allowing time for the iPod:iTunes
synchronization to complete.
