Thanks for this. I installed CCC a couple of weeks ago, but haven't actually tried to use it yet. I'm sure I'll be checking it out before Lion happens; am especially hoping that using something like CCC will preserve my app preferences for Adium and things of that nature. I have a little external hard drive that I just got for the mac. I've used it for time machine backups; can I use that same drive with CCCas well? I still don't understand everything about the mac, so will probably still ask stupid questions from time to time. Missy

I set up CCC (Carbon Copy Cloner) and I really love it. It's extremely easy to use and it's 100% accessible for VO users. Not only is it easy to make a complete clone, or a incremental backup, it's also really easy to boot from and use it on the external drive. The log details are well written and easy to understand. Restoring the original drive is also really easy to do. CCC is produced on a shareware kind of concept and it uses a donation request field. This is available within CCC as well as on the site. http://www.bombich.com/ So, why am I posting this? In light of Lion's upcoming launch, I just wanted to really be prepared. No matter what you use as a backup utility, CCC or Super Duper or any other backup package, I strongly suggest that you cover all bases and be completely ready for the new exciting move to Lion!
