Same here. I plug into a 3TB harddrive when I sit down at the office, and disconnect it when I leave. That way my backup is "offsite". For good measure, I also back up to an offsite location via a service called "CrashPlan". 129/year gives me unlimited backup storage for up to 10 machines. It has saved my bacon on more than one occasion. Every month I also rotate off my last month's images to two different external drives. So at any given time I will have copies of month-or-more older photos on: 1. Internal harddrive 2. External Time Machine drive 3. Portable "image archive" harddrive (contents compared between source and destination post-copy) 4. Desktop-sized "image archive" harddrive (contents compared between source and destination post-copy) 5. CrashPlan's "cloud". That's pretty belt-and-suspenders but it works for me. And most of it is automated, so it "just happens". -Charles -- Charles Robinson - [email protected] Minneapolis, MN http://charles.robinsontwins.org http://www.facebook.com/charles.robinson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
