RE: PROTIP: Print the images you want to keep and pass down.

in #photography8 years ago

I do online and offline storage. For online, I use Google+, imgur, and Flickr. For offline, I'm partial to Western Digitals "Duo" drives, which is a case with 2 hard drives inside. You can set them up any number of ways, but I prefer to use the "mirrored" mode, which is when one drive mirrors the other. This way if one drive dies, the other should still be intact. Just replace the bad one and move on. This of course doesn't address what would happen if the house burned down or if there was a lightning strike. Ultimately, the art of archiving (digital or not) is a constant uphill battle.
