Create a bootable backup of your Mac OS X system on another hard disk. Most FireWire disks can be used to boot a backup of OS X. An initial full system backup is typically under 20 minutes, and updating the backup usually takes less than five minutes, because only the files that have changed are copied.

 

With Fast Scan, incremental backups or syncs are 10X faster. Only those folders which have changed files are scanned, speeding a bootable backup scan enormously, for example. Available on OS X 10.5 (Leopard) and later, on directly-mounted (non-network) disks.

 

Keep old files that have been replaced or deleted in an archive, so that you can go back to them if you need to. With hard disks being as large as they are today, you may never fill up your backup disk, but if you do, the oldest files will automatically be deleted to make room for new files.

Set folders to backup/sync by dragging them from the desktop.

Displays a hierarchical list of files to be copied, similar to the Finder.

Files can be removed from the list (not copied) or deleted.

Use many different criteria to include or exclude files and folders.

Choose a number of files and folders \to backup/sync and include them in a single operation.

Syncs deleted files, which means that files deleted from one folder are also deleted from the other.

Backup
Easy one-way backup, including deletion of old files.

Checks for conflicts (simultaneous changes to both documents) and provides notification before backup/sync proceeds.

Synchronize! Pro X will automatically do the following...

• launch when backup/sync is needed; periodically, or when files are changed.
• connect to server disks, using File Sharing, AppleShare, NFS, or SMB (Windows).
• remember and supply file server passwords.
• unmount remote disks when finished.
• quit when done.
• log activity for later review.

• backup/sync can be scheduled, once or periodically.
• real-time backup, when files change.
• supports AppleScript initiation of backup/sync
