Hi all,
First just incase a mod sees this, I do have a post about external storage in the Mac section. But I wanted to ask in here too specifically relating to photographic storage solutions and what other photographers do.
So, I am looking to try and get the best setup (not necessarily most expensive) for my external storage solution I can.
At the moment I have a bunch of external drives. My photos are on the internal drive in my iMac and then replicated to 2x external drives via time machine which backs up alternate hours to each drive.
I was using a Drobo FS until it decided it was going to loose all my data one day when it was turned on so haven't used/trusted it since. Thankfully what was on there was another copy of my photos/music/docs etc which I have on other drives.
So I am curious, what do you guys use, how do you use it and what made you choose to go that way?
TIA
