The practical starting point
Synchronisation helps keep working files available across devices. An independent recovery copy serves a different purpose. If an unwanted edit or deletion is reflected across the working copies, their convenient availability does not necessarily provide the recovery point you need.
A workable next step
For each important dataset, record how changes propagate and where an independent export or backup is kept. Check the service’s actual recovery features instead of assuming unlimited history. Try retrieving a selected item into a separate location. Keep the exercise small and documented so the result establishes what was restored, from which copy and with what limitations.
Keep in your notes
- Describe how changes propagate.
- Check actual recovery features.
- Test an independent copy.
