Storing photos in iCloud is a wonderful thing, but it isn’t a backup. That’s because of two things. One, if someone else gets your login details you’re stuffed; and two, it’s a single point of failure: if something goes wrong on iCloud, the problem could then be synced across all your devices. Not great when you’re talking about priceless photos and videos.
Backups should be separate from your Mac, there should be more than one and you should back up regularly. If you’re happy to back up manually, stick a recurring reminder in Calendar – but we’d recommend using a dedicated backup app, such as SuperDuper, and an external drive with a large storage capacity to ensure backups happen on time.
