I currently use iCloud photo library, which downloads originals to my iMac. I also have two 2TB backup drives mounted in an external docking bay. One is the main backup, the other is a redundant drive which I use Sync Folders Pro app to auto sync he data between them, from drive A to drive B so they are mirrored.
I would like to backup my iCloud photos to the drives as well. I originally had it set up in some way which worked, and it auto synced new photos, but jumbled them into hundreds of random master folders. I would love to be able to back them up, somehow preserving them in order by date or even better, in their proper organized folders/albums. I have been completely unable to figure out how or even if it's possible. I can simply drag and drop all 12,700 photos/videos into the folder on the external drive, and have the organize into moments folders by date...but thats it.
Is there any easy way to point the backup software to the organized iCloud Photo library folder and have it automatically upload new pics to the backup drive as they are downloaded to the library folder? Especially any way to have it preserve the organization in albums?
