Hey guys!

I recently bought a new machine and was able to get it up and running with Mavericks. This is my first Hackintosh and I have been very pleased with the results! Thanks to everyone's help in the forums.

I recently got a new WD Black 2TB internal drive for backup purposes, however I read on this and other forums that time machine is a bad idea for a hackintosh build. I have also read that disk utility is a good way to clone a drive.

Does anyone have any other suggestions for a backup program for cloning my drive so it's bootable in case anything happens to my current build? I want a backup that is STABLE for a hackintosh. Thanks!!
 
TimeMachine works like a charm for me. It has saved me on at least 2 occasions with a full restore right from the installer screen when I've had to boot from my Unibeast USB. YMMV. :)
