jwz: Classic backup advice
Submitted by Merlin on January 21, 2008 - 8:18am.
This forum question about a comment I made on the most recent MacBreak Weekly reminds me that I mention jwz’s advice on backup often enough that it’s worth reposting the URL (as well as making sure credit goes where it’s due). On the one hand, his advice could hardly be simpler (that’s one reason I like it), but how many of us have taken the time to put a mature backup regime in place?
If you value your data, can’t tolerate downtime, and are casting about for a thorough solution, consider giving this a try.
“OMG, three drives is so expensive! That sounds like a hassle!” Shut up. I know things. You will listen to me. Do it anyway.

“Also, come on: that’s a hilarious throwaway line when you don’t take it out of context.”
Agreed. I almost did a spit-take
