Will create a snapshot/backup that is generally searchable from a mac laptop if I plug in an external drive Will NOT delete old backups or files that are deleted from the source disk as subsequent backups are made Must create a snapshot / backup of all files on my laptop that will remain accessible and uncorrupted, even if the software used to create the files is no longer supported in the future This means if I clear out my source drive (my laptop), there's no guarantee it won't also delete the backed up files. If the external storage runs out of space, it will delete the oldest snapshots. I started looking into "time machine" today and realized it's not a snapshot/archive utility at all, and is outright dangerous.
I desperately want to delete all of this crap from my laptop, but I'm terrified that I'll lose a critical file I may need down the road for legal reasons, etc. This has led to an immense of similarly named folders and files from over the years, many of which I can no longer remember or keep straight in my head.
My filing system is schizophrenic and consists of:ġ letting my desktop and downloads folders grow into monstrosities,Ģ every 3-6 months going through and deleting large files I don't need, while "organizing" the important files into new folders labeled appropriately I've been working on a macbook for years.
