I put about 80 GB of photos onto an extHD. Should I put them on a second to guard against one taking a dump?
This is one of those things where two is one and one is none.
I gave a talk on this and told them that if they wanted their grandchildren to see their wedding photos they needed to have them printed by a pro shop, or be ready to change electronic formats every time there was a new standard.
I just looked at the work drive I have here,a weekly paper, and since Oct 2013 I have 57,615 photos. Mostly RAW. These are all archived on another (caldigit) drive.
SSD will be my next go to. I saw OWC had a SSD thumb drive that holds 480GB but it is $280. Too much for me to jump on now, but it shows where things are headed.
Someone said that this generation is the most photographed of all time, and when they are old they will have no photographs to show.
