Backup question - Best Practices
#5
(10-06-2023, 04:46 AM)SteveB Wrote: As a former IT guy I'm a fanatic about backups.  At the end of each day I want to back up all the annotations I made, and maybe a scan of a new song or two.  I have been using the "Sync Library" option to sync to my DropBox account with the "Update Folder" option selected.

I prefer the Sync option because a full backup currently takes 7 minutes (I have slow internet) and of course will take longer as my library continues to grow.

Can someone advise me on the best way I should do end of the day backups ?

Thanks so much !!

I'm also for a full backup.
Optimise your pdfs/files to make backing up faster:
- instead of taking pictures (having large file size) use PDFs produced in notation software (having very small size)
- dissect unnecessary pages from PDF file. Export pages you only need.

I've around 700 pieces and cloud backup takes seconds.

Perhaps Mike can introduce automatic full backups for people like you in the future.
