Happy New Year. Annual reminder to BACK UP YOUR DATA!

(1/2) > >>

morst:
Get another drive. Copy everything important.
If you don't have your data on at least two drives, it's not backed up.
If you move photos from your phone to your computer, and then delete them from your phone, they are not backed up.
If you only have your data on two drives, and the building they are kept in is destroyed, your data might be lost. A third drive at an "off site" location is very highly recommended.
That's the short version of my annual data sermon.


In other time-based news, I'll also suggest that males check their balls monthly for any changes which might be symptomatic of testicular cancer. Dunno if you remember a taper named Steve Propp, but TC killed him. That makes me mad.
