Carbon Copy Cloner 3.3.6 - Easy-to-use backup/cloning utility. (Free): "
In its simplest form, CCC will clone one hard drive to another, copying every single block or file to create an exact replica of your source hard drive. This is very useful if, for example, your laptop is damaged and you must send it in for repair.
CCC can also be used to perform regular backups of your data. When you select a source disk in CCC, you are presented with the contents of that disk (hidden items too). Simply uncheck the items that you do not want to backup, and CCC will provide ample indication what will and will not be copied. Select a target disk to which you would like to backup, then press the clone button.
The key to a successful backup plan is to actually do the backups regularly. When left to a human, the task often gets tacked on to the end of a very long list of other things to do. When you eventually have a catastrophe, the data is simply gone. You know that feeling -- you just lost six years of family photos. Your kids being born, their first birthdays, their first everything. The answer to this is consistent and regular backups, placed on a schedule and handled automatically by your computer. CCC includes that functionality, and takes it even further.
- Fixed an issue in which CCC would report errors such as 'malloc: *** error for object 0x811000: pointer being freed was not allocated'.
- The contents of /Volumes are now excluded by both cloning methods by default. This resolves an issue in which mounted NTFS volumes would cause CCC to report problems copying that volume's mountpoint folder.
