[QUOTE="Randy B. Singer, post: 1844160, member: 190607"] I pretty much cover it on this Web site of mine: [url=http://www.macattorney.com/upos.html]Upgrading To The Very Latest Macintosh Operating System[/url] Item #7 But in general I DON'T recommend ONE backup system over all others. I recommend that you have a multi-tiered backup system. I can't tell you how many times I've heard from users who have told me that their internal hard drive died, but they thought that they were fine because they had a backup. But they went to use their backup and for one reason or another they found that their backup was hosed. The backup plan you use has to be designed by YOU, because everyone works differently, has different levels of importance for their data, and has different needs. Someone who is just a hobbyist might be fine with a single clone backup. A more serious user might be fine with both a clone backup and a versioned backup. For attorneys I often recommend a three tier backup plan with a clone, a versioned backup, and a third backup of just your workproduct (i.e. just your Documents folder) to a large capacity flash drive that you always carry with you as an off-site fail-safe for after working hours. If you really like the advantages of a cloud backup service, a personal cloud server that you set up off-site somewhere might offer even more advantages than a commercial service. <https://shop.westerndigital.com/products/cloud-storage/wd-my-cloud-home#WDBVXC0020HWT-NESN> [/QUOTE]
