That's quite a bit of data to move.
You really should upgrade your 5 1/4 inch drive though...It's on my own system. Drive very healthy and not that old. just setup a new game system (i7 8700, 16GB ram, 2TB hdd, MSI B360 Mortar mobo) for myself and transferring data to backup drive.
If it fails I don't really care as I have everything I need backed up to several other places including cloud.
Just didn't want to have to download all the Steam games again!
Well, I was thinking about a dying drive but not the external. Happens. Thanks for posting back!Hey @fabs The backup failed but only because the backup drive died on the operating table.
I sent the log with the error report when the backup completed. Probably a waste of time because it wasn't Fabs Autobackup that failed!
Nevermind, I transferred everything I needed manually (slow day!) and all that's left is to copy the entire Steam folder (all 678GB of it!) from the old drive (not the failed one) to the new.
I have done this in the past. Steam is smart enough to see the "Steam" folder in Program Filesx86 and just reinstall the missing bits!
Saves a ton of time and bandwidth.
I have a suspicious feeling he will have an announcement in the near future about product updates. Just a hunch. @fabs
Not such a big deal. Details have to be polished but that would not change the way I work
Did I miss something?Not such a big deal. Details have to be polished but that would not change the way I work
All I can say so far is that I am going to work with Malwarebytes. Stay tuned
That can go both ways for us users. Time will tell. But for @fab's it is a big break for him good work and congrats.
Hey, well done! That's awesome! As a developer?
No, I stay independant. Just a collaboration between us
Well I would fully expect development on Autobackup to slow down for a little while, while Fabs finds his routine. But, from my own experience as a full time developer, it was still fun to come home in the evening and work on my own projects.
Ah, see, that's even better
Hope a compensated one.
You have a family to support. More money coming in is always a good thing as long as the family does not suffer.
