I've been weighing my backup options, because I think it might be a good idea to have backups of my files (maybe...).
Time Capsules strike me as worth the money, but 2TB is overkill for the stuff I have to back up. Plus, I don't want it to only back up when I'm at home.
I have a Mac Mini connected to the Internet doing Server things, but it's a bit of hassle VPNing in and waiting for backups to finish over the Internet... I do like that it's off-site though.
If I got an external HDD, I'd never remember to plug it in and I wouldn't want to deal with it.
I came across this Nifty MiniDrive, which uses the SD Card slot I never use to add storage. I like that it's always there, so my MacBook can make Time Capsule backups throughout the day, but if my MacBook is stolen, so are the backups...
So how do you backup your stuff? If you use the Nifty MiniDrive, how do you like it? How does it fit? I have the 13" rMPB, and I've watched some review videos, I think one was a MBA- sometimes the reviewer complains that the fit isn't perfect, the right side sticks out.
