I'm using a 1TB drive for my photos and videos and I have about 800GB used, I'm on a Mac.

1.) Since it is a data only drive with no applications or OS, are there issues with the drive close to being full?

2.) I currently have a 2nd 4TB drive that I just drag everything from the main 1TB drive to back up. How do you backup your files? I'm looking for any suggestions on a better way to back my drive up.

Thanks for any suggestions/info.
