Any thoughts? Anyone know of the best back up software to not put a big drag on the network or manager's machine for this kind of manual back up?
There are several out there, one that has throttling options is Acronis.
Does anyone know if the AC back-up is a full back up with old copies, or more likely the incremental back up that we would find encrypted by cryptolocker?
It is a full backup, but as I have learned recently the [very] hard way, they retain ~ 6 copies, so if you are doing something with the database install and backup during the process, they might only have backups covering 2-3 days.
Indy, do you have a cloud back up that would have a recent unencrypted full back up for all your wild and crazy friends? It would be worth extra.
For my wild and crazy friends, DA!, I can always haz backup space.
