Backup automatically to a hard drive Is there a way to automatically save my blender files to my external hard drive when I work from my desktop?
Like saving it to multiple file paths. Someone on the blender community did create an add on, however it looks like it's only for rendered files. I'm looking to back up the entire project every time that I save. Thank you.
This is more of a general software recommendation question, I believe, but one thinks it may be migrated in the future.
I'm familiar with one specific program known as Allway Sync which is for Windows (multiple versions) that can be configured to monitor/check specific locations. When a change is made to that/those locations, the files are then copied/synchronized with the configured destination.
I've used this specific function to prevent data loss for a client, which worked well. The program can also be configured to respond only to a specific device, which means you can exempt a different drive from storing the synchronized files, or alternatively, use multiple drives.
The free version will work until you've performed an undetermined number of backups/synchronizing actions at which point it will request payment. The cost is relative low for such a useful, powerful program.
There may be other similar types of programs available.
