[QUOTE="stmv, post: 89828, member: 10038"] exerpt from blog 6: well after 10 years, of backing up photos, one of my current external drives failed, and even my local repair shop can not recover the disk. So a reminder to keep dual drives setups. Current drives are now 2 TeraBytes, these hold over a year of photos per drive, so a lot of photos. I do keep two drives, so now taking the hours and hours to copy over and recover the dual drive data. so, for folks that are only on a single external drive (or computer drive) photo management system, consider during the upcoming Black Friday sales (world wide on Amazon), and buy your second drive. you will be so glad you did, if you have a hard disk failure. Not like negatives, only as good as the magnetic state of the hard drive! [/QUOTE]
