Carbon Copy Cloner is a reliable and easy-to-use solution for Mac users that need to quickly backup their system and take advantage of the benefits which the bootable recovery has to offer.

By using Carbon Copy Cloner, you are not just making ordinary system backups that require the use of another hard disk in case the current one fails. Thanks to Carbon Copy Cloner, all your data along with the operating system’s data are stored on a bootable volume that can be instantly used.

Consequently, you can boot from your backup if your hard disk fails and return to your work and projects in a matter of seconds. This features, gives you time to replace the damaged drive at your convenience and restore all your data in one easy step.

From the main window, you can quickly select the source and destination volume, select the files you want to include or exclude from the backup and even customize the backup process.

Carbon Copy Cloner allows you to create multiple backup profiles and decide what happens with folders and files that are present only on the destination and with the files that have been modified since the last backup.

You can prune archived content before copying files and constantly keep a certain amount of free space on the backup drive.

More experienced users can also access the Advanced Settings window and enable options such as “Run the deletion pass on the destination before copying new files”, “Replace a folder on the destination if the source item is not a folder” or “Calculate a checksum for every compared file” and “ Remove files on the destination that I have excluded from the backup”.

As mentioned earlier, you can backup to hard drives, network drives and disk images and use subsequent backups and copy only the items that have been changes since the last backup.

In a nutshell, Carbon Copy Cloner is a powerful backup tool that allows you to schedule backup tasks on a hourly, daily, weekly or monthly basis, and is also capable of sending email notifications when a backup is complete or if errors occur during the backup process.

What's new in Carbon Copy Cloner 6.1.10:

  • Made an adjustment to the "Restore" button constraints in the Snapshots table to improve its appearance in some non-English locales. Separately, fixed an issue where this button would errantly appear on non-selected row views when scrolling.
  • Fixed a layout issue in the "Grant Full Disk Access to CCC" window that was causing the French description to get cut off.
  • Fixed an issue that was causing the volumes listed in the View menu to be disabled.
  • Adjusted the logic for suspending deletions when a directory enumeration error is encountered during source discovery. We no longer suspend deletions when the error is specific to a DataVault (i.e. an Apple-proprietary and Apple-apps-only container).
