I like my LP's ; I like my CD's , I like my hard copy books
I just don't care for cloud
even not considering that I'm on dreky 128K upload (soon to be 4x that )

True Image on USB stick for system partition. HD images and media data (especially photos) twicely written on DVD, stored in a water- and fireproof box. I like my data! 🙂
Dropbox? 😱 A slight dose of paranoia can sometimes be the proof, that your instincts are still working.

+1.. been using dropbox for quite some time now.. its very good.. highly recomended..
you see - I didn't even checked ........ but fact is - just "Pass" sub-folder in my "Audio & Electronics" folder is heavier than 600MB
ok - duplicated file here and there ..... but certainly no more than 5% of folder
Agree 100% on both accounts.
...well maybe only 99%, as I find it easier to just get a big USB stick. They have entered a price range that makes them interesting.
I got myself a 64GB a while back, and it seems to sort most of my immediate needs.
Magura 😀
Why not just keep a 500 GB or so, external hard drive, connect it via USB and use it as a backup...
Ok... so maybe I'll back up to dvd or something in the future most of what I lost is in diyaudio,so I can find it again . All the critical build stuff I have in binders in hard copy(don't ask).

Zen Mod's got it right. Owner crashes, computer fine.
I'm sure they must crash but I have owned a dozen or more going back to the 90's, both business and home use and so far so good.
Uh-oh, I've just jinxed myself haven't I? 😉
Mind you my brother tends to overwork his with Adobe Illustrator or In Design and his screen freezes once in a while. He just turns it off and back on and it seems to reset everything without losing his data or the project he was working on but I don't think that's considered a crash is it?
