Arq 5.8.5 For Mac
Hey fsalla, perhaps you could enlighten me, are the plugins that are developed for Mac significantly different to those developed for Windows? Is it a relatively easy exercise to just convert your Windows plugin into a Mac one. Im curious to know if, when Rhino 6 for Mac is released with plugin support, developers will be rushing to put a Mac option out there or if the complications of re-writing it to work on the new platform will dissuade them.
I have a cynical feeling that the options available on the Mac will remain limited even when Rhino 6 for Mac is out there.
In an effort to make your data more secure, Arq for Mac does hourly backups of your data to a specified location like Google Cloud Storage or Amazon S3. There is even an option for a generic SFTP, but no cloud service coming straight from the developers. Like OS X's Time Machine, Arq for Mac can save metadata and does delta backups to prevent duplicates. Pros Works like Time Machine: Arq for Mac resembles Time Machine in the sense that it does incremental backups in order to avoid duplication and space wasting. Everything, including metadata, is backed up every hour, so even your more recent documents will be safe from loss.
When your available space starts to shrink, the oldest backups are deleted first. Back up to multiple clouds: In the app's preferences you can choose where to back up your files. More than one destination is allowed, increasing the overall security of your data: you can back up to Amazon S3, Google Cloud, DreamHost, GreenQloud, and a generic SFTP. Cons No first-party cloud solution: The app doesn't offer first-party cloud storage, so you're forced to either set up your own SFTP server or use one of the supported service providers.

Involved first-time setup: Since there's no integrated cloud solution within the software, setting up the backup location requires public keys rather than your service log-in details. Bottom Line Arq for Mac is essential for anyone who values their data and follows the rule of thumb that for a file to be truly safe it should reside in three places - on your computer, an external hard drive, and in the cloud. The app, itself, runs smoothly once set up, so it's definitely a good one to try out, provided that you are registered with one of the supported cloud storage providers. Editors' note: This is a review of the trial version of Arq for Mac 4.4.1. Arq is the only online backup product built for the Mac and only the Mac. So it has the look and feel you expect from a Mac application.
Arq backs up and faithfully restores all the special metadata of Mac files that other products don't, including resource forks, ACLs, and creator codes. Arq works like Time Machine, except you don't have to remember to plug in your external hard drive. Following the initial backup, Arq automatically makes incremental backups every hour, every day, uploading just the files that have changed since your last backup. Arq keeps hourly backups for the past 24 hours, daily backups for the past month, and weekly backups for everything older than a month.
Arq lets you set a budget for S3 storage, and it automatically drops the oldest backups to keep within the budget. Arq backs up everything with no limits. It backs up files of any size, external drives, and network drives. Arq 'de-duplicates' your backups, never storing the same file twice in your S3 account.
Full Specifications What's new in version 4.13.2. Fixed an issue that would cause massive RAM usage if configured to back up '/'.
Fixed a crash that occurs if the SFTP server fails to return a user auth list. Fixed an issue where Amazon Cloud Drive returns a 400 status code with JSON response showing statusCode:404 instead of a 404 status code.
