I'm looking for an easy solution to protect against random bit flips (so-called bit rot) of data stored on various drives. They are not disk arrays, just single disks, that I backup once a week. So I'm not looking for redundancy, but for file integrity -- i.e. I want to know if my files that I haven't accessed in a long time got randomly damaged or not, and hopefully repair them if possible.
At a glance, SnapRAID seems to do what I want, except it's made for disk arrays, which is my problem. I think that it could work with just 1 data disk and 1 parity disk, in which case the parity disk will probably be a mirror (backup) of the data disk, but I'm not sure.
Other than that it does what I need: checksumming files, ability to verify this, and even repair them from the backup (parity). I'll still run a weekly backup on external media, but this local backup needs to be less manual because it's starting to be a pain to manage.
Are there other tools like SnapRAID which are made for just 1 data disk or filesystem that they protect with automatic checksumming/backup, or should I just use SnapRAID? Does it work fine with just 1 disk?
Because it uses a parity disk for the backup, I'll have to completely wipe my local backup disk before using it with SnapRAID, so I'm hesitant to just "test" it for myself without confirmation. One downside to this is that the parity disk will not be accessible as a normal disk, even though in this case it's not really a parity disk but just a mirror.
Repairing files based on some backup is a possibility for future enhancement. As the author of Datimprint I welcome you to request new features or report bugs by filing issues. You can provide other feedback in discussions about the program.
The site-to-site replication feature provides hosting providers with a simple means of replicating backup data across SBM servers regardless of their geographic location. Replicated site data along with the SBM System Backup can be used to restore an entire server, including its archived data, server configuration, and multi-tenant accounts. Just think of it as disaster recovery for your backup system.
Did some research on how to opt out of the Dropbox Beta, since I hate the new system hierarchy. Went to settings, turned "early Releases" off, signed out Dropbox, uninstalled the application, reinstalled Dropbox, signed in. Trouble is, there are still nagging bits of the beta version lurking. Trash can now deletes immediately and permanently (instead of staying there until I decide to empty it). And I can not get directly to my folders from my dock shortcuts. I am running an iMac on OS 12.5.1. Is there a more complete way to step backwards from the beta version? Help!
Just FYI, I told Dropbox to stop backing up my computer, and that fixed both my problem with the trash, and the problem with the documents folder. So I am limping away from my beta test disaster. And will find another entity to handle my computer backups.
I am using DropBox for my backup, and it appears that the only way I can access things that I believe/hope are still on my mac, when inside another program (in this case InDesign) is to go through the DropBox "archive" folder (where my backup lives), now under locations. Pain in the a** since it is 4 clicks in for every item.

Revo Uninstaller Pro automatically records all deleted Registry items during all Uninstall procedures and the Autorun Manager, but not for files and folders. This is because the backups can be large in size, and this may not be practical.

Installing the backup server directly on the hypervisoris not recommended. It is safer to use a separate physicalserver to store backups. Should the hypervisor server fail, you canstill access the backups.
It will even do the backup sync using FTP, if you have an internet server. This is great for collab projects. Or client access to files. Or client upload of files (for example a mastering engineer). Have the files the client uploaded to your webserver auto sync to a secure folder on your hard-drive, automatically.
By backing up to the cloud, your backup, you avoid the issue of the lengthy and CPU intensive processing happening on your DAW. It also allows you to reboot the DAW or even power it down, while your mirror is happily backing up online. The end result is that your files get backed up faster (no interruptions).
I do manual Time Capsule backups of my main HD, but for several other drives which see daily/weekly use, I use Data Backup. I maintain at least two, cloned long-term archives as well as two + one off site for active projects and current year archives. This product handles it all flawlessly in the background. AND very reasonably priced.

Archive Bit in incremental backup is a file attribute that indicates whether a file has been modified since the last backup. The Archive Bit is a single binary value, typically stored as part of a file's metadata. It is used by backup software to determine which files need to be backed up during an incremental backup process.
By using the Archive Bit in this way, incremental backups become more efficient. Only the files that have changed since the last backup need to be included, saving time and storage space compared to a full backup where all files are backed up every time.
The differential backup captures all changes since the last full backup, making it different from an incremental backup. Differential archive bit remains set after backup. Restore needs full backup and latest differential.
Incremental backups focus on recent changes since the last backup, while differential backups capture changes since the last full backup. Each approach has its advantages and considerations in terms of storage efficiency, restoration process, and backup chain complexity.
Incremental backup addresses the need to continuously back up data without duplicating unchanged files, thereby optimizing storage space and reducing backup time. With AOMEI Cyber Backup, you can efficiently implement incremental backups, safeguarding your data against unexpected threats and ensuring business continuity.
? Versatile Storage Options: AOMEI Cyber Backup allows you to store your incremental backups on a variety of destinations, including external drives, or network locations, giving you flexibility and redundancy.
