Do you have photos of your work stored in files? Do have a safe backup method? I thought I did, but after about 6 weeks of attempting to fix a computer that is still under warranty, I managed to get it back only to find my new Terabyte external back up did not transfer.
What do you do when your backup drive fails? Would you go to the manufacturer and haggle it out, or go to a computer tech who may be able to recover all or some of your files?
Having your files backed up in more than one place is the best bet. Ultimately a cloud storage, as I found out the hard way is the best option. The reason I hadn't done this before is security concerns, but according to my technician and the cloud back up claims, they are safer than your bank account.
One last tip today on storage, a professional technician stated the larger the external back-up drive, the more problems they have.
Take it from me, cloud storage is a small price to pay compared to possibly losing your precious data.
