Online Backup

Not sure if I should post on C&O, but do any of you back your files and important documents online? or how do you backup if not online? I have so much that I would HATE to lose if something were to happen to my 'oh-so lovely' lap-top. I already back all of my pictures up on Shutterfly. So, obviously the cheaper (or free) the better. TIA.

Re: Online Backup

  • I only backup pics on Photobucket (since you can keep the original file size).  I would love to find a place to back up other files, but the pics are the only thing I REALLY care about, I would be absolutely crushed if I lost all of the pics of my kids.
  • We store our photos onto an external hard drive.
  • I store photos on flash drives and if it's trip photos from a vacation then I usually burn them to a CD as well.
  • 1) I do not keep any files on C drive, the operating drive.  That goes and so does everything else.  I have an internal drive that I use to keep stuff, so my C drive is clean.  Maybe that helps keep it from going down.

    2) I back onto external drive.  Sometimes I work on external and then copy to internal.  Things that I absolutely cannot lose I back onto 8g flash.  I back my entire internal drive every few months.

    3) pictures are on external, internal, DVDs in safe, and on-line storage

    yep, I'm a scuba driver, too, so redundancy is a habit. 

    My only question - how do you back emails?
