My work-flow for dealing with backups

[Syed Zaeem Hosain (Syed.Hosain@aeris.net)]

Got it! Definitely works well for you then. I am still on the freebie plans for DropBox, Google Drive and Microsoft OneDrive for now (combined storage is about 60 GB) for my file-sharing needs. 

FWIW, I have stayed off the larger-capacity, paid storage plans because I ended up getting a RAID-1 NAS server at home for the five systems that I back up regularly. Fully automated (Time Machine for four Mac's and ShadowProtect for my Lenovo).

Yup, the synced desktop/laptop/online copies is exactly what I want. Dropbox just increased the space to 1TB for the paid version, which is more than enough for my active files. Didn't mention that I also use it to transfer files to others. And can access it from my phone and tablet. More than worth the $100 a year.
