John, Neither. I have my Legacy database on a flash drive. This way I can take my data to ANY computer with Legacy installed on it. I also keep my images (in small .jpg format) on my memory drive. All my images go with me. This way I am not limited to home with my database.
Before disconnecting my flash drive at home, I do a full copy to my hard drive (for backup purposes ONLY. The database is only accessed from the Flash drive. This way I have no problems with trying to keep multiple copies of the database updated. I volunteer at a Family History Center and recommend this practice to all patrons who visit on my shift, whether they use Legacy or not. It works with all programs. But, I do put in my vote with them for switching to Legacy every chance I get.<hehe> I use my memory drive to demonstrate the capabilities of Legacy to all who are interested. I have had quite a few switch to Legacy and they love it. I also have the installable executable file on my flash drive. I can install the standard version on any computer I am working on. I then leave it for the family member or friend to use when I leave. This way they have a great genealogy program to use.
