Your MacBook probably contains all your most important files, from critical work documents to photos from significant moments in your life. Unfortunately, all it takes is one glass of water or unstable perch to destroy your computer — and all your data and files, too.

These storage and backup solutions are just what you need to keep your data safe in case of a disaster. Many come with lifetime subscriptions that lock in deep discounts forever.
