[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1875600, member: 204485"] As Jake said you can choose not to store or sync a lot of things on iCloud which will save you space such as Safari, Mail, Notes and especially iCloud Photo Library but be aware that although that will save space they will not be available if you loose your computer or if you computer crashes but some things are just convenience and don't take up much space such as Reminders, Calendar, Contacts and Find My Mac/iPhone/iPad etc. Find My in particular is a very handy application which not only enables you to locate lost devices but prevents people erasing a device and allows you to remotely lock and or erase the contents of a stolen device. As for Safari, Mail, Photos and Notes you can back them up locally using Time Machine on an external drive. [/QUOTE]
