Sierra: Timemachine backup routinely
Enabled Timemachine backups on ReadyNAS102 and created "user" for Mac to use in creating to ReadyNAS backups. Timemachine will create backups for a few days them it will report that it must create a ...
Using bit-rot protection and snapshots with Time Machine would have a performance impact that increases over time one would think.
Yes, this is true, however....
1) Nobody cares about the performance of time machine. So long as it completes ever, that's fine.
2) This approach actually works, the current approach without snapshots causes people to routinely lose their time machine backups.
3) Running without bitrot protection, what's really the point of having a backup anyway if you don't know that the data in it is correct? Again, see point (1), the set of users who actually care exactly how long it takes their computer to do the time machine backup is probably the empty set.
