@jasonmcfadden I don't use a backup utility, per say. I just regularly copy stuff over to two external hard drives I own. I should probably pick up a newer drive sometime just for safety sake.

I know doing it manually isn't the most consistent thing, but I've had trouble with third party back up systems, and don't feel comfortable letting a program take a copy my files automatically. I refuse to use OneDrive no matter how much Windows tries to force me to.

I do, however, allow my iPhone to back up to iCloud. I don't buy new phones often, but when I do, it's a very handy thing to have.
