I do not use automatic backup, did not know it was available. I have a Network Attached Storage with mirrored 2TB drives and use Windows File History to copy all files changed in the last hour to the NAS. The NAS keeps time stamped copies which is handy if I do something stupid and is easier than having to open a single large file as created by some backup software. For me this is automatic, seems reliable and convenient. Occasionally I will do a full backup to the NAS using backup software. Completed projects are copied to my client’s computer for off site archive. This hardware is not expensive for the peace of mind.
