Time Machine is one of the best features of macOS, automating the process of backing up your primary data drive to an external drive. If you’re not using it, you should.

“By default, Time Machine makes hourly backups for the past 24 hours, daily backups for the past month, and weekly backups for all previous months. The oldest backups are deleted when your backup disk is full.

I like this added feature. 👍
