Hi,
I've been doing Time Machine incremental backups from my Mac for years. I do it alternating two drives, for additional security (backup drives tend to fail, sooner or later).
I've a stable ~100Mbps internet connection, that should be enough for cloud backup on something like Backblaze.
The cost is very reasonable (about 100 USD a year). There are no limits of size, contrary to local drives. Recovery in case of total disaster could be even easier than from local drives, considering Backblaze's service of disk delivery at home.
Is there any reason to continue doing backup on local disks, instead of using cloud backup?
