Product Description:

Carbon copies. And a whole lot more. The 2005 and 2006 Eddy Award winning SuperDuper is the most advanced, yet easy to use disk copying program available for OS X. It can, of course, make a straight copy, or "clone" - useful when you want to move all your data from one machine to another, or do a simple backup. In moments, you can completely duplicate your boot drive to another drive, partition, or image file. Clones, though, don't work very well when it's time to recover from an unexpected system disaster - like a bad driver or OS update. Unless you take specific steps, restoring a drive image restores everything on the drive, overwriting both the system and user files. If that's what you want to do, great. But it's usually not, since all the work you've done since the backup would be lost. Clones for safety.

What's new in this version:

The latest version of SuperDuper! is up to 2x faster, adds great new features like Backup on Connect, Eject after Copy, Sparse Bundle support, and still lets you store a bootable backup alongside Time Machine backups, copy Time Machine backups to other drives, run scheduled copies on demand. As with every update, we've and polished and improved many other aspects as well. (A full list can be found by selecting Help > Revision History.)

SuperDuper ReviewTop notch - Version: 2.6.2, 11/25/2009 12:57AM PST

I have been using SuperDuper! for about three years and I really think it is an excellent piece of software.

It is so easy to use that I do actually back up every couple of days or so, something I have never got round to with any of the other backup software. The thing I like most though is the ability to produce a bootable backup. I know that if anything goes wrong with my main backup I can just plug in the external 2.5" drive that I use to back up and hey presto! I am back working again.

It is also very useful if you want to upgrade your HDD. You just stick the new drive in a USB/firewire enclosure, use SuperDuper! to backup then swap the disk in the enclosure for the internal drive and you're away.

Support is also first rate. I have a query a couple of days ago and exchanged a few emails with Dave Nanian. He was very helpful and responded to my emails super fast.

I have no connection with Dave or Shirt Pocket but I like this product so much that I am doing my bit to promote one of my favourite pieces of software.

I emailed various questions to Shirt Pocket about this product (NAS compatibility etc.) and they were promptly answered in a round of back and forth emails, even though it was after 10:30PM. Thanks Dave! I've now purchased the product and am 100% pleased with it.

SuperDuper saved my gluteus maximus! Corrupted some files, probably boot sectors, on my iMac. Thus, it would not boot. Used my recent backup from an external 800 Firewire drive and copied the entire contents within a very short time. Hassle free, outstanding project for chump chance. Buy it!
