Scheduling Network Backups E-mail
Scheduling network backups for times when all machines are available can be a challenge—particularly if you have laptop computers that are not always on the network. Retrospect offers a great feature called Backup Server that constantly polls all the clients on a network. If it sees one that hasn't been backed up in at least 24 hours (or a period of time that you specify), it performs the backup right away. Backup Server can be restricted to run only during certain hours on certain days, and it can also use any available, designated hard disk as a destination—so you don't need to figure out in advance when to swap media.

Hello MacGuys,

My mac is working great! the new HD is working great and has given my computer a lot more speed, which I'm very happy with. Brin did an excellent job, he is very personable and professional. If I have any problems in the future, I will without a doubt call you guys!

Thank you!
