Once people jump on the backup regularly bandwagon, the sinkhole that many fall into is to stress the details: the absurd fear that some day there will be some file that they will absolutely have to have. You don’t even know it’s running but you hear the hard drive spinning, and watch your system slow down for a few minutes. A backup plan is only as good as its followthrough – which is why Time Machine is so epic.
Everybody “knows” they should backup the problem is they don’t. The “you should backup regularly” argument needs little coaxing. My advice for a good backup strategy? Keep it simple.
