Question: What do you use? For backup, restore, storage? - bjcheung77 - 09-14-2021

For non important files that are somewhat small (such as ones on the cell/iphone)...
I copy my documents/files onto Dropbox, Google Drive, One Drive and for Apple: iCloud

For my laptops with SSD, I use Macrium Reflect to backup or clone the entire drive contents to HDD.
I'm running out of space for storage and don't like flash/sdcard or usb storage.
I pretty much copy those files from pictures/videos onto my HDD regularly

What do you guys use?  Anyone got a recommendation for a file recovery tool for SSD drives that go bad?

I use iCloud. I'm an avid Apple user. Keeps all of my stuff together. I pay for my iCloud storage and have 2T currently. Most of it is unused, but I got a deal on it at the time so I just stick with it.

This is much like what I do.  I also have an external hard drive that has some stuff on it.  It's getting older now and I'm not sure I even remember everything I've got on it.
