The whole DT universe is waiting for such an update …
Dude take your time to check this Forum, you will see some rumors like decembre …
Don´t expect a fully working OB or samplemanagement tool
I agee,
no backup is def. the worst case they could force us to …
I´m sure you will experience less crashes after updating it, but updating can also fail
and i´m sure the new features will only work with an updated machine.
I had a really nice crash-experience while rocking a crowded club, that´s why i´m not using it live at this time.

Not what the op or many others are looking for though, the current proccess is overcomplicated and uninviting, more for desperate measures than regular use. Proper backup should be as easily as an os update, plug in a usb, send the file(samples and pattern data), job done. Then you can wipe what you like and reinstall when you need to without any confusion.
