I registered SuperDuper today and have a few questions please concerning scheduling.

first of all, As I navigate the scheduling window with cursor tracking on and the mouse set to follow VO, each checkbox reports being checked, and pressing VO space to uncheck causes the default button to be clicked (it does not uncheck the checkbox). It seems that dragging the mouse along automatically checks any box it lands on. So, I found I have to navigate to the desired box, then turn cursor tracking off before moving away from the checkbox - seems kind of klunky but it works.

But My big question is this:

If I want to have several bootable clones going back two or three weeks is it necessary to have two or three partitions, one each for each boottable clone? Basically, I want to implement the strategy wherein I can go back several weeks to a clean system in the case that one or more saved backups is corrupted, or contains the same problem I would be trying to recover from.


I have a 2TB firewire 800 external HD, and its empty, so I can re-partition it as much as I like. With my limited understanding of SuperDuper, I was considering making 4 small partitions one each for a scheduled bootable clone, but that doesn't sound right either.


I'd be glad for any backup strategy ideas, concrete or otherwise, that you care to offer.
