  • Apple's iPhone 11 Pro used to film Selena Gomez music video 'Lose You To Love Me'

    I'm not sure this will help iPhone sales. How bad are all these crossfades?

  • iOS 12 'doubles down' on performance for iPhone and iPad

    Speed improvements are real and noticeable on my iPhone 6 testing unit. This alone is a good news.

  • NAS roundup: Best network attached storage options for Mac, iPhone, and iPad users

    I found that an encrypted backup is even better, in case you have to deal with ransomware attacks.
    Maybe it is worth taking in consideration units that offer snapshot duplications with complex encryption keys.

    I had to face a ransomware attack a couple of years ago: both the file server and the backup unit, which was a standard NAS, were completely defeated – no hope to retrieve anything from either unit. The Syneto unit that was sitting on the same network got under fire too - but only the last snapshot was accessible via the network, so it was the only one that got corrupted. 
    I've successfully restored the previous snapshot in less than 15 minutes (I keep 24 daily snapshots on this machine) and got everything back.... it was really a life saver.

    Since then I rely on a three-level backup: a standard Time Machine on a thunderbolt drive, an encrypted backup via Carbon Copy on the Syneto unit and the icloud stuff on another level. Of course the management of the above is not the simplest, but it seems a fine cover...
