Hey,
I posted a similar question the other day, but somehow it showed up empty.

I find retrospect to be tempermental and am a little tried of it. Does anybody use superduper? Like it? Anything I need to know?

Thanks people.

I have used Superduper for a month or 2 - works fantastic!

CCC is now Tiger compatible and if you have .Mac, Backup 3 is supposed to be even better than Retrospect and the others.

I have used it extensively and never had a problem. Amongst it's many features, it supports Smart Update, so that after the first clone is made, only the changes are updated, ergo a complete BU can then be made in ~ 3 minutes (depending on drive size, computer speed etc.)

Also, the next version (currently in development, delivery date still unpublished) promises to support scheduled BUs so that BUs can be made while you sleep.

The developer (Dave Nanian) hosts a SD Forum and personally answers most questions/posts with 24 hours.

Well worth the shareware price (IMNHO).

The demo is free. Give it a try!
