Keep in mind though that the only complete protection against disaster (like a housefire etc) is to have an offsite backup. This will increase your resistance against disaster scenarios. So one thing you could do if you're nervous about your current backup external HDD failing soon, is to get a second drive and schedule RSync to essentially mirror the backup data from drive #1 over to (new) external drive #2 (or a cloud storage target). You could use this, for example, to back up your main files to your current external drive.Īnother tool, RSync, automates basically direct copying of files from one place to another (as far as I've heard it can also do local drives as well as cloud targets).

The major benefit of this is that you set it to backup entire directories with filters (with full ability to exclude specific subdirectories or folders as you wish), but after that you don't need to remember to copy-and-paste over the files you want to back up, it handles it for you including added stuff. There are lots of tools out there for this, but here are just a couple:ĭuplicati is a free, open source tool that will make scheduled incremental backups from anywhere on your computer to any of a number of backup storage destinations, including cloud providers (Amazon S3, Backblaze B2, etc) as well as local options like another hard drive on your system or a network drive on your home network. But IMHO you might want to ramp up and automate a bit. For one-time use, just copy and paste or clone the drive as previously suggested.
