Internet Discussion / AI Scams From US Senators

Of course, I'm not surprised. AI is still in its infancy. So, a would expect, hackers, scammers, etc. will take advantage of it. :(

It will probably start happening to the rest of the world sooner or later, if it hasn't started already.  :bnghd

Do you get full USB 3.1 speeds? I had a look at the site only some are faster then 150MB/S
I'm not sure, tbh. I do know that it's very fast. I'll have to look into it when I get a chance.

EDIT: I looked at the Android version for Acronis and Sandisk and both have bad ratings. LOL I looked around for something else but couldn't seem to find anything similar for Android. Both software work great on the PC, tho.

EDIT AGAIN: I did find this bit that I think I might try.

I have 2 x 2TB SSD one has the main drive (operating system plus partitions) and the other is what I used to clone the Windows partition once a month. I also have a program 'Syncbackfree' that I use to copy the other partitions on the main drive to the backup drive weekly as they are the ones that change a lot with adding files etc. By doing it that way I'm not cloning the whole 2TB drive only the operating system, then if I have problems all I have to do is swap the drives.

It actually reminds me that I should do that today   :rgton

You mean the links in test? They are harmless. Always use the tools provided under the test and don't do anything that the website tells you to do. ;)

They have differential, incremental, and full backups. I have it set to incremental since it will only update the last changes...saving time and disk space. It didn't take long at all for my drive that takes up 3TB+...maybe less than 3-5 minutes. :)

It uses Acronis True Image, which has been around for a long time and works very well.
