I never said it was practical :D

I just started getting this error on one of my backups. In the past an erase and copy fixed it. I'm getting the same error when running a disk verify on the source and I have not restored from a...

Disk verify error on rotating SD backup

I use SD in a backup scheme where we do nightly smart updates, and then rotate those offsite every week in a rotation with 3 drives (one on-site, one off-site, one in transit). I have a post backup...

Unhappy Seen this too

I've seen this exact problem. I'd have to do a complete copy with ACLs turned off, then restore that again to the main drive so that I knew it had no corrupted ACLs. Then I'd have to reset all the...

I thought I had a working system with applescript for a rotating offsite backup, but it seems that the problems with SD attempting to mount the last connected volume persist.
