angryherbalist Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Getting a hyperspin setup going takes a bit of work. That work goes onto a Windows computer. The combination of things makes me nervous. What if a HDD fails? What if the OS tanks? Or, simpler and less catastrophic - what if I want to create another arcade box in my house and don't want to start from scratch? How does everyone do it? What files do you ALWAYS back up? How do you have your rom collection and art organized to ensure you have everything you need in one place and can just drag and drop and be ready to go? Thanks!

dougan78 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 I have a synology and use active backup to do image based backups of the entire computer. I do 6 months of weekly snap shots. Then replicate that offsite to another synology at a relatives house Incase my place burns down. Allows me the ability to restore the computer via a usb drive back to the way (usb boot connects to synology then I can choose what snapshot to restore from)it was at that snapshots point in time. If I made changes more I would do it more frequently. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninja2bceen Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Nothing fancy for me, get an external hard drive, copy over all the files every so often. Put everything in a hyperspin riot folder, copy that and be such to copy your apps data folder and c drive documents folder. That’ll 99% or 100% your set upSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
