I would back up to more than one place. Having a backup on your computer only does not keep your precious information as safe as it could be. I usually have a backup in my computer, one in the “cloud” and one on a external hard drive. That way if the computer or HD get lost, stolen or damaged in a natural disaster, I still have the cloud copy to draw on.
I agree with João that Dropbox is a great option and you get 5 GB of space for free but if you are already using Office 365 you may not know that you get 1TB of cloud space with the service. Cloud storage is easy to set up and use and it will give you some piece of mind. Good luck and if you have any other questions I’d be glad to help if I can.
