Continuous backup during tether, or just after shot complet
Hi , Im just wondering if most people during tethered shoots, have something like chronosync running and an external back up drive backing up continuously during the shoot - or if its best to wait until the shot is complete and then plug in an external drive and update the back up
Whats is preferred, and also does an external ssd vs hdd make a big difference for this type of backup
any help would be great!

I use a raid 1 mirror drive, writes to both drives at the same time. 0 -
I run chronosync manually whenever it's convenient, usually between shots. You can run it on a schedule, every 5 minutes if you find it doesn't impact Capture One performance. I always use the the mirror backup setting and synchronize deletions. Mirror seams to work better when backing up to a network server, so I use it for everything.
Many places I work don't backup which i think is a serious mistake. You want to have two copies of the job in case of failure but you also want a backup incase you make a mistake in the working copy. A RAID 1 setup will not protect you if you do something accidentally to the shoot.0
