What Time Machine does Time Machine makes a snapshot of your files every hour. The files are usually stored on a external hard drive connected to your Mac via USB or Firewire. So if you lose a file, or did a devastating change to one of your files, simply go back in time until you find your file or a version that’s not corrupted. Incrementally backing up all files every hour so that you can access them in reversed chronological order isn’t that hard with standard Unix utilities like rsync.
