Cloud Storage

Cloud Storage

I back up all my production files locally on several redundant hard drives, and I also keep a backup of the past 6-12 months files in my Dropbox.

I believe I pay $100 each year for 1 Terabyte (TB) of storage. That’s 1,000 Gigabytes.

Around 6-12 months after an episode has been published I will remove those files from my Dropbox to make room for newer episode files.

I like having many backups – several locally and one in the cloud.

  1. I use Apple’s Time Machine to back up locally, and Backblaze to back up to the cloud ($5/month). I check periodically that both are up to date and working properly, but, fortunately, I’ve never needed to restore from either, with the exception of restoring a single file I accidentally deleted on my MacBook Pro. I’ve used both for several years.
