Excerpt:
Back in the day, Mike Bombich's Carbon Copy Cloner was one of those
must-have Mac apps. It was the first solution for making bootable
backups to an external hard drive. Unfortunately, CCC had not been
updated in quite some time (2003) and its former place has been taken
on many Macs by the excellent SuperDuper! (which I use myself, but
which runs $27.95). Mike has finally come out with an update for CCC,
and has released a beta of version 3 of CCC. According to Mike, CCC3
was "completely rebuilt from the ground up to bring a new suite of
features." Among these new features, are a revamped interface,
network backups, "advanced scheduling capabilities" and more. Perhaps
best of all, however, is that CCC3 is now a Universal application.
Carbon Copy Cloner 3.0b4 is a free download, but Mike asks for
donations. It looks like CCC3 could be a great, less expensive
alternative to SuperDuper! once more.
