Furreal? I have pics on there that I don't have copies of...

In this digital world where technology always fails I am missing thousands of photos. Even my external hard drive with 15 years of photos crashed (which costs $750 to recover btw). My baby pics?? Still in tact.

Ya I've learned that lesson! I have photos stashed in multiple places. 1 primary photo hard drive where I process and edit all my photos. 1 secondary backup hard drive/server and backed up archival copies on CDs. I'm both anal and paranoid. Mostly because I've worked in IT all my adult life and know exactly what can/will inevitably go wrong with all manner of technology.
