Yeah, but what happens when you drop your laptop on the ground and it breaks? Good look recovering data without having to pay a recovery firm a $1000.

Personally, I restore my Time Machine back up. I’m sure some people might restore their files from iCloud or elsewhere.

It’s a pretty bad idea to keep valuable documents on a mobile device. You can’t recover the data from socketed storage if it’s lost or stolen.
