You can set it up with an automated routine that automatically updates the backup disk when you plug it in. No lauching the app. No quitting it or ejecting the disk, either. It does all that automatically.</p><p>I also use Time Machine to back up my entire system. AND I store important data, encrypted, in the cloud.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/BackItUp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BackItUp</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/Tip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Tip</span></a></p>
