A two day long restore process!!!
I have a 'image' of my C drive with all the programs, all my runtimes (about 40 I guess and 150Gig altogether) are on another drive. This runtime drive is also backed up by a process that only updates the changes which means I can back it up daily if required but normally I run it weekly. Both the image and the runtimes are backed up monthly to two drives, one stored in a fire safe and the second held at another location.
Restore process. 1. Restore image to C drive, or new drive if required. 2. Start runtime restore process and go to bed. 3. Get up next morning to a fully restored Poser installation with all my runtimes as they were and all my work and work in process where I left them.
I use Poser 13 on Windows 11 - For Scene set up I use a Geekcom A5 - Ryzen 9 5900HX, with 64 gig ram and 3 TB storage, mini PC with final rendering done on normal sized desktop using an AMD Ryzen Threadipper 1950X CPU, Corsair Hydro H100i CPU cooler, 3XS EVGA GTX 1080i SC with 11g Ram, 4 X 16gig Corsair DDR4 Ram and a Corsair RM 100 PSU . The desktop is in a remote location with rendering done via Queue Manager which gives me a clearer desktop and quieter computer room.
