I actually just started a new backup about 3 weeks ago on this one. I’ve Googled this one, search numerous Mac/OSX/Apple forums about it and it just seems to be that TM has issues with backing up over wifi and will eventually fail. This thing fails about every two months like clockwork. Again, thanks for nothing.īack to TM and the NAS. I guess it must be backing up more that 300gb, because that’s how much is free. I decided to manually run CCC, it starts, then fails and says the destination drive is full. So I check, I find it’s been running daily, and it’s been failing daily for the past three months. Since this happened, I started thinking, what happened to Carbon Copy Cloner, I haven’t heard from that app in awhile. I run Disk Utility anyway, and sure enough, the drive is now being formatted. It means that somehow the TM file is corrupt and it’s going to format the drive and start again. Now, you see, I did this about two months ago so I know what it means. Carbon Copy Cloner backup up to the same NAS.Īs far as I can tell, none are 100% reliable, and thus enter my frustrated post.įor the past couple of days TM has been telling me it cannot backup to the MyBook and to check it with Disk Utility.Time Machine backing up to a NAS with two mirrored disks.I currently have four backups, yes four, and three different methods for each: If this stuff disappears it could mean weeks to months of lost time and will lead me to curling into the fetal position in a corner and crying over and over again. As a freelance developer I have multiple projects on my laptop, along with site backups, older versions, etc.
