Jimmy Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 SSD and cloud, for me. Pay for a proper cloud service that backs up across multiple locations and has backup even if someone accidental deletes it. Nothing digital is failsafe, but cloud storage is pretty damn close.

blafarm Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 ^ That is certainly one approach -- and it's a reasonable one.However, SSDs do not fail gracefully -- they typically die with no warning. And they typically die unilaterally (like a light switch turning off) with their data unrecoverable by utilities like Spinrite, PhotoRec, DDRescue and TestDisk -- which frequently allow some amount of data resurrection when used with mechanical drives.Cloud storage is great, but it becomes a somewhat difficult premise when you are generating terabytes of data every week or month -- and if you are also dealing with proprietary data that cannot be compromised.

Jonesy Jones Posted February 21, 2016 Author Share Posted February 21, 2016 I'm picking up my 360TB crystal reader/burner this week. It's going to feel good knowing my data is safe forever. http://mrctv.org/blog/scientist-intend-record-entire-human-history-superman-memory-crystal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
