But, i guess that there's always some percentage of RMAs an fails around in hardware That's the reality of any hard drive, solid state or spinner. Always assume that they can die at any time. And have a good backup plan, and use it regularly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo NAS (Raid 1) for OS full backups weekly, with incremental daily between. I keep a three week rolling cycle, just in case. DAW projects are backed up to Carbonite real time unless I'm doing drum tracking and then I turn it off until tracking is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abacab Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 (edited) Full image backups only for me! I don't trust having a chain of dependencies to fall back on. I believe that increases the complexity, and odds of failure to restore. Backup storage is relatively cheap now, and USB3 is reasonably fast. Incremental and differential techniques are a throwback to old times (at least for single machine desktop users). If you are a sysadmin running a cloud server farm YMMV.
