I read quite often about how important it is to do backups.
When I was a Windows user my 'backup' was simply an external HDD with all my media on it, and then every couple of months I'd do a copy of my important documents. This served me well.
The normal recommendation for the Mac is to use TimeMachine to do regular backups (by default that is every hour or so, deleting old ones automatically) and also to have a second backup 'off site'.
I have a TimeCapsule doing the regular backups and also an HDD with a copy of my media on it.
What do you do?
