A few days ago a livecaster accidentally burned down a large part of his house (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;youtu.be&#x2F;82UsZ44AxIA?t=290" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;youtu.be&#x2F;82UsZ44AxIA?t=290</a>). Besides buying a fire extinguisher, that got me thinking I should have remote backups. So far I&#x27;ve been only using Time Machine to back up to an external disk in another room.<p>Somehow I&#x27;d like to have a periodic whole disk image of my mac that could be downloaded and mounted on a new computer as-is. Currently investigating if I could use Carbon Copy Cloner to do a weekly bootable disk clone and then have that be uploaded to Dropbox.<p>CCC creates a huge directory called &quot;Macintosh HD.sparsebundle&quot;. Not sure if that&#x27;s really mountable or if syncing it to Dropbox will be practical.
