![]() The same goes for my Cryptomator volumes - at any time after a macOS update, this may cease to work. A family account with about 69 Euro yearly for 6TB is hard to beat. So, I use OneDrive but always expect it to vanish. This is, because I don’t trust Microsoft - I already lost one account and hundreds of GB of content due to Microsoft closing this account. Lots of stuff below ~/Library seems obsolete. The same is done to my Cryptomator content, which removed this content from the need of working Cryptomator software - the backup contains the unencrypted files, but on an encrypted volume.Īnd finally, my /Users/tja folder will be copies to those VeraCrypt volumes too - and here, I am not sure about what should be saved and what not. This backup is simply done with “rsync” and a bash script. Then, every few days, after adding or changing something, I back-up the OneDrive data to local VeraCrypt encrypted disks, one SSD and two HDD which I weekly rotate as archives. I plan to migrate all content to Cryptomator, which is stored on OneDrive and over DT synced to both WebDAV and OneDrive (the indexed database itself is not sync again to OneDrive, but all others). I have some imported DT databases, some open, some as encrypted disk images.Īlso, I started to index one of my Cryptomator Volumes, which will be the way to go, for me. On my WebDAV server I create and rotate backups from time to time, but rarely. ![]() This saves my databases encrypted to those remote locations. I have OneDrive set up with the Sync / Cache location on that external drive, all content pinned.Īs I do not trust any Cloud provider, lots of content is encrypted with Cryptomator, which can be mounted on the Mac as regular volume.ĭEVONthink is configured to sync to a remote WebDAV server and additionally to OneDrive (the local Sync Location, which get’s uploaded to OneDrive). My main data is but on an external APFS-encrypted Thunderbolt drive, or in DEVONthink. Just in case, as it does not hurt and is both encrypted and automatic. I use TimeMachine to automatically backup my system over USB to a SSD, beside some excluded folders, like for local DT backup archives, Downloads and some others. In regards to backup of my Mac Mini M1 and DEVONthink, my concept is as follows: So it’s a bit of both: mechanism redundancy and features. I use TimeMachine and CCC because I hope that using two systems will offer redundancy (think a borked update which the maker of the software doesn’t notice until a month down the line) CCC because it allows me to make a bootable system backup (so if my internal SSD died, I could simply plug in the backup and keep working that is not a seamless as is once was, because Big Sur) TimeMachine because I like the way it offers me easy access to previous versions of a file (so restoring a single file is really just a matter of clicking a couple of times). I don’t back up all my data to Arq though (I assume that anything not under my control could be compromised some data I am not legally able to put in “the cloud”). With Arq, I would expect not to lose more than 8 hours worth. I use Arq for its off-site backup whilst I do store the SSDs which I cycle off-site when not in use, in case of fire, for example, I could still lose 3 weeks worth of work in the worst case. TimeMachine seems to me to be much more reliable nowadays, and I use it with external SSDs attached via USB.
