This diatribe has degraded into udder nonsense, and the topic has been milked to death. Forget about backing it up, just kill the beast and enjoy some burgers.

If the cows have pointed ears, does that mean the burgers are vegan burgers?

This thread has gone completely sour on us, and the wags who have horned in and begun pun-ishing us for steering it badly probably want to milk it for all it's worth, rather than herding it back to the OP's topic. I think we should just put the thread out to pasture and close the gate.

Ask Brink or John or a Mod to close it. MR won it!

MR did win the poll, but my guess it didn’t change anyone from using what they have always used. The poll just reflects the opinion of folks that already use MR. I use duplicators, does MR make any duplicators? If not, that sure would bring them into the 21st century.

So how exactly do you back up a runaway cow?

Police were able to calm Daisy down just in time (probably because they had backup).

Daisy isn't very happy about the near miss, she's developed a sour attitude, and is now producing sour cream. :winkt:

Sour cream is the sacred ingredient. https://www.delicious.com.au/recipes/texas-chocolate-sheet-cake-sour-cream-frosting/oZ9Pe1AD

I don't need a duplicator ! Macrium Reflect has saved me many many times. In fact just today it did. If you don't like it do not use it.

Gosh Honey, no need to get all bent over it, are you ok?

I am not bent about it, just stating a fact. You should be asking yourself that as I am NOT your Honey.

That's all I use also. Tried and used all the rest, but Macrium never fails. What I really like is it's ability to recognize Linux and its labels. and has no issue imaging them as well. I've had issue with Acronis in the past failing because of Linux.

The browse feature is a great addition.
