It either takes up a lot of space or it doesn’t. I don’t know how much you’re backing up or how much space is a lot to you. You can’t screw up and learn without the consequences. That’s how you learn. Without the consequences you don’t take things seriously. Backups will help you to recover when you do screw up.

1 - there’s 2 things to consider here… A) Your files (documents, photos, etc) B) Everything else (the Windows / Linux mac operating system, applications, your screensaver, printer defaults, etc) You only need to backup A. It’s up to you if you want / have space for B But, 1st time, backup everything. Then do item 2 (screw up) big time and do a full restore. Once you’ve done that, you’re set for life
