I use this drive for storing photos and video only. So if computer ever fails, I have it all physically. I don't know, but internet back ups scare me, lol |
Thanks MaryKay - I thought about an extrnl too. I have a 16gb flash drive that would easily hold everything, but I just don't know how reliable those things are. What I do love about having them online is I can access them anywhere, but I hear you on the concerns. Ugh, I don't know what to do...
Where did you get that drive? I looked for it on amazon and not sure I'm finding the right one. For auto-backups, do you have to remember to always leave the drive connected then (I have a laptop)? And then you just program the backups through utilities?
