Great way to backup your digital photos!


I know how many digital photographers there are on this board, so I thought I should share this great site I found. For about $50 a year you can have totally unlimited backups of all files on your computer (not just photos...) If you want to just protect your favorite pictures you can go with their free 2GB plan. Check it out by clicking here. Its really easy to use! And when you get a new computer (or if yours crashes) you can easily restore all files...

I use the Mozy Pro for work reasons. It is a good product for backup.

I have an external hard drive that works great too. I trust it more than a site

Where do you keep it? I was thinking about that but then worried that I'd be storing it right near my PC -- meaning that if one got damaged, so would the other...

I have my photos on my home PC drive, home external USB drive, laptop, work PC, work external drive, and an off-site storage site (similar to this one). If all of those get destroyed, I figure I have bigger things to worry about... Chat Icon Chat Icon

I'll agree to "King of back ups"... Chat Icon Chat Icon
The bank safe deposit box is too much of a pain to get to. Plus, with 20+ GB (and increasing quickly), it's hard to store stuff on a single piece of media. I used to use CDs, then DVDs, now I need to use large USB drives... Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon
