[QUOTE="spb_stan, post: 635510, member: 43545"] One thing I notice when having a lot of local or cloud storage, everything gets saved and that is almost never needed. When I do an event shoot and take 1000 frames fore example, not that many are every going to be used or even fully developed. We tend to save way too many files that just are not worth saving. About once every 6 months I open a number of directories and start pruning, again, and find the ones deleted are never missed because they are not good enough to stand out or to show clients. I store some on Dropbox because I like the shared folder functions where I just give a link to a client or friend whose photos I want them to see or download. It is about $10/month. My GF saves her data, photos and letters on it also so she has access to them on her phone, laptop or any computer she is on at the time. I tried auto backup with another service and it was not as flexible, but did save everything, which I did not need, most does not need to be saved and knowing how many agencies have backdoors to all cloud services or phone networks, there is no need to have all that out in public domain(public when any of those with access unknown to you, want to release it). I am not so sure it is a good thing to have all details of life broadcast to agencies who have access to your data. They do scan it regularly. [/QUOTE]
