That is VERY unfortunate. I back up the II with my backup file, and it is about 4 GB. I know Bert and some others may back them up separately. I certainly recommend NOT using the cloud if it cannot back up II successfully. Bert has many ideas about using RAID drives. I use a G-Safe RAID unit with 2 drives, and have a 3rd drive for swapping. I swap in the drive and take another home: it then rebuilds the backup on the new drive, giving me a backup, backup backup, and a third backup backup backup that is off-site. I would not trust the cloud for this!
