I store family pics and photography work on cloud storage. I learned the hard way when local primary and slave drives failed.
Yeah, I don’t use cloud services to archive anything, but I do have the following backups to my system:
1. Clone of my hard drive to a secondary hard drive in the same computer, which I then dismount.
2. External USB hard drive which I clone, remove, and store in the lock box at the bank.
3.separate hard drive on my computer that is constantly doing interval back ups (this is Apple’s time machine)
I do the cloning of the drives once a month. I’ve lost stated before, and I should know better, but my backups were not good. Now I make sure.
I use cloud services for image hosting and such.
