I don’t get it. Is it the same? If is it possible to back up iPhone storage and being able to restore an iPhone later? How is it different from a simple external hard drive? Why people choose physical ones over virtual?

Physical storage : You have it in your possession, you know where you are sending your data and you know what is happening with them.

Virtual storage : You are sending your data somewhere else, you don’t really know where you are sending it and you have no real idea of what is happening with them.

Both have advantages and disadvantages depending of your preferences. The big one are that physical storage are generally more secure and virtual one are easier and more practical to use.

You should also know that “Cloud” storage by default is used to mentioned a “virtual” storage. If someone is using their own cloud, it would mean they are sending data from somewhere else on a storage they have in their own possession.
