Just curious if you and any others make a local media backup, i.e. DVD? I generally will make a cumulative backup to DVD about every 6 months to a max of one year. There may come a time in the future when either the Internet has been sabotaged on a semi-permanent basis or else it is so congested that any throughput is just a trickle. And remember, "cloud storage" is just somebody else's hard drive.

That is the Legacy Default which I though was the question I was answering. If, however, you are asking where I have my back-ups, then in addition to the default I have copies on my brother-in-law's PC, the cloud and an external HD.

Well, that should be changed (and it's easy on the backup screen) or you're in danger of losing them all if your computer crashes. I send my backup files to a folder of their own inside My Documents. All of My Documents is backed up to an external hard-drive daily. ----- JL Beeken JLog - simple computer technology for genealogists http://jlog.jgen.ws/ On 3/26/2013 2:00 AM, Ron Ferguson wrote: > The Legacy backup. zip file when created is always stored in the > Legacy Data folder. > --- > Ron Ferguson > http://www.fergys.co.uk/ > GOONS #5307 Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
