Backup and archive: aren't they the same thing? Not even close. Mixing up these two concepts is one of the most common reasons people lose files they thought were safe. This episode breaks it all down and gives you a practical system for protecting both your active data and your long-term files.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• The key difference between a backup and an archive, and why you need both
• The 3-2-1 backup strategy: what it means and how to set it up at home
• How Apple Time Machine works for quick, local Mac backups
• Why Backblaze is a reliable, affordable option for cloud-based backup
• How iCloud fits into (and doesn't replace) a real backup plan
• What a good archive setup looks like for files you don't need every day

If you've ever said "I'm pretty sure I have a backup somewhere," this episode is for you.
