I Need To Backup My Mac’s Important Data

Apple, Geek Stuff, OS X Add comments

I need to come up with a good backup strategy for backing up my Mac’s important data. I currently use Time Machine to backup my Mac however, I’d like to implement a remote backup strategy similar to what I’ve implemented on my Windows box. Right now, I’m looking into either using JungleDisk (Amazon S3) or rsync over ssh.

Anybody have any suggestions?

    Amazon S3 is a great service. For something like 5gb storage and moving 5gb in /month and 5gb out/month, the cost is minimal (something like $2). You can always have another PC/Mac in house for backups. I know that’s not exactly remote :-) If you know somebody in a hosting environment that’s an option too.
