You need an external disk to store your files. However, if you only want to back up some files, you can buy a USB drive or external disk and copy them manually.


Although what I have said, you must make backups of your data. All hard disks fail and we don't know when, so it's highly recommended to buy an external disk to make backups with Time Machine and/or Carbon Copy Cloner
