this backup cloud service is provided by Dell - who is a reputable company, and also the manufacturer of my system. Therefor I have confidence that my information is safe. I do not need to perform the backups. They are performed automatically by the program I downloaded. I can use the restore discs to get the computer up and running enough to contact the cloud service representatives, then they will restore my files. So I think I have a pretty sure bet system in place for any unforeseen issues. That being said, I still have all my files as of this date on flash drives, and have no intention of removing any data from those drives, so I will always have that extra extra backup just in case. Also - every single file posted to my website is stored in a cloud as well. So I will never loose any of the music I have posted on the site. All and all, I feel pretty safe.
My new monitor is arriving tomorrow. They messed up the order by putting in two orders and charging me twice, so they ended up sending my corrected order next day express shipping as a way to make up for the mistake, at no extra charge.
