[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 346564, member: 9240"] A lot depends on how you shoot and what value you place on the files. Many backup to a second drive on import so they never lose their original RAW files. I don't do this because my [I]keeper[/I] rate is about 10% since I don't usually peep and delete (old eyes) and that's a lot of storage for files I'll never use. When I shoot a special event I will back up everything from the cards immediately just in case. When I import I do it by date with files in date-specific folders. Once I've gone through and deleted the stuff I don't want I will back up that day's images. Once the year is done I recatalog and back those up separately. The strategy I don't have is backing up the backups to the cloud somewhere. I should probably get that cranking since I likely have some sort of cloud storage that I'm paying for already. I also back up my LR catalog once a week and make a copy of those offline. [/QUOTE]
