![]() Adobe software and some Photoshop third party plugins. However, for some reason I still haven't figured out yet, certain things will not be backed up (application stuff), and will require you to reinstall certain softwares. For all intent and purpose, your system will be running like it was when you backed it up. It will also allow you to copy that back to your main HDD. Yes it will make a bootable clone on to an external HDD, or an separate internal HDD, or even a partition. ![]() However, the one gripe that I've always had with CCC, is that it doesn't completely backup everything.

Yes, it's a lot to read but quite frankly, if you get it wrong and you sit idle thinking you're good to go you may be in for a rude awakening later on. I understand the whole idea of not wanting to open your wallet, but I can't argue opportunity cost when it comes to backing up my data.Ĭheck this thread out: SD vs CCC vs Time Machine? and also read this: The State of Backup and Cloning Tools under Mac OS X. Apparently SD was the best around but not free so somehow that was supposed to be a con. SD was said to have captured said metadata and therefore was used more often over CCC. Now, mileage may vary and I didn't read it through and through, but I am not sure if they addressed the metadata concern. Interestingly enough the article published raised awareness with the CCC people and they wrote this article. If you're a photographer this would raise alarm, if you care about the creation date of your documents or anything similar then this should also raise alarm.
