[QUOTE="robertgarven, post: 1932616, member: 40520"] I'm like the poster above I have several copies of my hard drive I think the real issue here is files are getting bigger and let's face it Apple hasn't been very accommodating when it comes to hard drive file size even though the technology is there to make them larger and cheaper. I think they wanna push everything to the cloud so they can have control of everyone's information. I don't have any cloud storage except for find my phone and I make duplicate copies and keep them a different locations. I think it's obvious to all of us but I have a thumb drive here in my hand that is 5K from long ago and I remember when I bought it this is insanely big now on my other hand I have one that is 85GB.... For years I had a super Duper backup and one of my iMac failed years ago and my Super Duper would not back up to my new iMac I bought. I don't know why that is but I followed all the directions and I backed it up weekly. Was very lucky that my Mac that failed was because of a graphics card, and somehow I connected the two together and they communicated and I saved all my information, that's when I started having at least three backup drives!!
