Up until recently I’ve had my Macbook connected to a NAS in my house, which wirelessly backed up my computer once every hour. This was good for recovering lost files, or things that I had accidentally saved over. It was also of course great for peace of mind, and included all of my Elektron backups.
Unfortunately the NAS got bricked (it was a “My Cloud” which are notoriously terrible), so now I’m thinking about buying another one. However I’m also considering just using iCloud. If I’m understanding correctly that will save my data as well, though I’m unclear on whether it will save Ableton files, random SYSEX backups etc, or if it just saves Apple’s app data (photos, texts and so on).
What’s everyone’s thoughts on best practice here? I really don’t want to lose over 10 years of work
