[QUOTE="aroy, post: 498329, member: 16090"] My backup strategy is as follows . I copy all RAW files from card to Desktop once a day, when I propose to process them . I copy the RAW files from the desktop to an external USB disk, once the battery in the camera is nearly finished - 500 to 700 images depending on the lens . I then copy the RAW files to another disk on the desktop, I have 6 of them, and use one 2TB as a local backup . Once I backup, charge the battery and then format the card. Over the years I have acquired a lot of hard disks - 80, 160, 300 and 750 GB. I now use them for off site backup - once every couple of months I copy data to one disk. Once that fills up, it is the next one on line. I check the disks, once a year (run read-write diagnostics) and they seem to be fine. [/QUOTE]
