I guess I am simple... I have three external drives, all have all of my
work and files, don't back up systems and programs, don't steal them,
have the install disks and if I have to rebuild I like to start from
scratch anyway... I do have one cloud account for two folders of
recent artwork and business files too... but I really don't know much
about it, I put stuff in, it backs it up at night... Supposed to be
always there for me, I sure hope so
Wow, this from the alleged purveyor of technical support.....
The problem with not backing up operating systems and programs is that
it takes a hell of a lot of time and attention to reinstall them. When I
got my iMac with the new HD in it yesterday, I ran a "Time Machine"
restore, went out for lunch, and when I came back an hour and a half
later, the new HD was up and running with all the contents it had on it,
just as it was the day before I took the iMac up to the apple store. All
I had to do was type in my system password.
