Hi All,
I regularly back up the local hard drive on my laptop, but as I'm considering moving a LOT of the laptop contents to OneDrive now that it gives Office 365 users a TB of storage, I'm wondering if I'll still need to back up OneDrive. Are there still risks of losing files through file corruption? Would MS ever have some kind of OneDrive meltdown that would ruin or lose my files? I don't know enough about cloud storage services and how MS operates, protects and creates redundancies on OneDrive to ensure file availability with no damage or loss, so I'm assuming it will still make sense to back up files on OD. Still, I figured I'd check with WPC readers for any thoughts or ideas. Thx ahead for any help.
