angleigh Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Back Ups...what do you use? Do you back up to multiple locations? Do you store a back up off site? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angleigh Posted April 5, 2022 Author Share Posted April 5, 2022 I used to use carbonite but don't any longer. I back up on multiple EHD's. It's funny I just had this conversation with Justin last night. Because I back up everything on 2 different EHD's. So for example, my HD that has all my Senior photos is backed up on 2 EHD's....so they are in 3 spots. His question to me was "have you ever had to use your 3rd back up" lol...no but just in case. So i'm a back up on multiple EHD's...but I do wonder about backing up on off site locations again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MariJ Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 I'm a back-up on multiple EHD, too but since my new laptop (oops - that is now 1 year+3 months old!) I've only been backing up to one. ? Funny thing is, I just asked my cousin a week ago - why did I need to save two backups from the old laptop, couldn't I erase one and reuse it for the new one? Answer? Yes. Done? Not yet. Thanks for the reminder Angie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
englishrose Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 I too have 2 EHDs and I've never had to use either of them - lucky me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squadus Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 Keeping a backup of data is important because it provides an additional layer of protection against data loss. Data loss can occur due to a variety of reasons, including hardware failures, software errors, malware attacks, natural disasters, and human errors such as accidental deletion. I recommend keeping a spare hard drive for backups as well as utilizing a trusted cloud service for images, files, editing and designs on-demand. Dropbox and Amazon Cloud are amazing cloud storage providers that make it easy for us to access our files on the move. Both Adobe and Canva offer services that really make it easy to store photographs, designs and mockups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
