second hardisc is not the solution if time travel needs for your rescue... i lost 3 TB data because of electric problem in Turkey...
Those discs are backuped internal other 3 TB And yes i got good UPS But all of them gone... Remote backup or just a handy external HD is the answer... I use Time Machine with 24 hours backup intervals with 1.5 TB External nowadays... Because i need the open my workstation for 24 hours and something migth happen that i need to stop prevent further disaster but i could not be there as i lived. 2009/11/9 Dan <dantear...@gmail.com> > > At 6:45 AM +1100 11/10/2009, Stewie de Young wrote: > >I personally install a second hard drive in all my desktop computers . > > Good to have extra drives for backup, but keeping them hot (powered, > spun up, and/or mounted) leaves them vulnerable to both hardware > failures and software "attacks". > > >When I have enough data to fill a DVD or CD I burn that to disc and > >store it in her garage, usually wiping the data off her drive. > > Temperature controlled garage?
