A bootable backup for me (Mac) means SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner which have an option to make the backup disk bootable .. i.e. when booting, hold down a magic key and the boot program gives you the choice of which device to boot from.
This is especially lovely when a disk goes bad .. you can literally replace the bad one with the backup. Yes, you'll be missing some work done since the backup, but Dropbox and others take care of that. Lets you backup at a reasonable interval (week?) or when you do system updates (new OS, new Apps, etc) -- Owen On Fri, Oct 3, 2014 at 5:51 PM, Gary Schiltz <g...@naturesvisualarts.com> wrote: > Not sure what you mean by “bootable backup”.
