![Back Up Your Mac: Complete Guide [2023]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/xPdaVPEfbsg/mqdefault.jpg "Back Up Your Mac: Complete Guide [2023]
🍎 Back in the day, you were taught to have a data backup to protect against hardware failure or human error. Today, we have new threats like climate change, war, or someone hacking into your Apple ID, taking all your data hostage, and selling it back to you for a ransom! THAT is why we need to have an UPDATED conversation about how to back up your data. Think of iCloud as your parachute 🪂 Its going to protect you... probably 😬🤞 But if it doesnt, 😱 thats why we have an emergency chute (in case the 💩 hits the 🪭)
NOTE: You will need an external hard drive for this solution.
Think your old backup drive holds up?
Go to the App Store and Download BLACK MAGIC DISK SPEED TEST
USA LINK: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/blackmagic-disk-speed-test/id425264550?mt=12
If your drive shows a READ/WRITE Speed UNDER 200MB/sec, its time to buy a new one.
All the drives you see below are Solid State Drives (SSDs).
👨💻 My Favorite 3 Hard Drives:
1. FantomDrive SSD https://amzn.to/400wL3F
2. SanDisk SSD (water resistant model) https://amzn.to/3QiYBoM
3. OWC SSDs https://amzn.to/3S0U2R9

Thinking about switching to Apple Music? This tutorial contains everything you need to make the big switch.

Several months ago, I made the switch from Spotify to Apple Music. And NO, Joe Rogan had nothing to do with this decision. For me, this came down to two topics: access to high-quality audio (I ❤️ My AirPod Pros) and cost. One of the segments in this guide discusses the best way to sign up for Apple Music. You can save significantly on your digital services by bundling Apple Music with iCloud Drive Storage and Apple TV+ under the new Apple One plan. With the family plan, you can then share those services with up to five other people (who technically do NOT need to be related).
