Vor ca. 2 Jahren habe ich mir ein NAS zugelegt, um meine Datensicherung auch "extern", außerhalb meines Rechners, zu haben.
Und was soll ich sagen? Ich bin noch immer begeistert!
Der PC kopiert bei jedem Systemstart die neuen Datein auf das NAS und das NAS kopiert alle Daten in "die Cloud".
So habe ich stets ein Backup meiner Daten, kann mobil darauf zugreifen und das alles, ohne auch nur einen Finger zu rühren :)
a word of warning. backup your files! i lost the last 5 plus months of my photoblog due to drive failure and my failure to create a backup of the site. Luckily I did not lose any of the images. HOWEVER, any drive can go at any time so heed my warning all you digital shooters.

One of the backup singers at an Erasure concert at the 9:30 Club in DC - not sure if this is Val or Emma.
I decided to post a little different version of my technology Saturday series. This time, instead of a photo of a piece of technology, I'm posting a photo of a technology service.
After my computer died last year, I realized my photo collection was not backed up, and quite venerable. Thankfully, my computer failure was not the hard drive, and my photos were intact. When I built the new machine, I needed to plan a backup solution. After considering many options, I decided to go with Dropbox.
SInce I use Lightroom, I keep my entire library in my dropbox folder. As I import new photos, they automatically upload to the cloud. I don't have to remember to make backups as I go along. As an added bonus, the Dropbox folder also syncs back down to my linux laptop, so I can access all my photos with Corel Aftershot Pro.
The downside is the monthly fee. Right now I'm paying $10 per month. And as you can see in the photo, I'm using over 80% of the space. Eventually, I'll have to upgrade to the $20 per month plan (though I'll go for the $200 annual fee). And part of my space is a 48GB bonus I got from buying my phone last year, and that expires next year. As my collection gets bigger (almost 16 thousand photos now) I'll have to consider other options.
I'd be curious what others use for backing up your photos. Also, I have to say, I'm not advertising Dropbox, but if you are interested in trying it, use the following link. It will give you a bonus 500MB of storage in addition to the 2GB of space on the free account. And it will give me an extra GB. :)

The queue of last-generation hard drives waiting to be backed up. I should be able to fit them on to 2x 750GB drives.
A short break from Portugal photos...
Today my hard drive with the whole collection of photos suddenly died. Most of the file looks like on the picture above. Photos contain black cut-outs, there are also bad coloured stripes.
CrystalDiskInfo application says, that there are some reallocated (bad) sectors. Status of this hdd is "failed". Well, that happens sometimes...
PHEW! Luckily I have a backup of all my photos on another drive. I lost only a few unnecessary raw files.
Dear Flickr users, always remember to make a copy of your important documents. Have a nice weekend :-).

I am singing backup "I Think I Thought I Saw You Try"
church 1/26/14
I wanted to sing harmony/backup for the whole song,but the lead singer has his own band and has been singing for over 10 years and produces music. I didn't want to ask since I've only been singing (on stage) for 3 months. And REM doesn't have background vocals all the way through anyway.
Interesting, a camera that watch for traffic violations on the intersection is backed up by a wind-mill generator. Or, is it? Which one of the two sources (wind generator or solar panel) serves as the ‘main electricity supply’?
Notwithstanding the ‘free energy’—no violator is getting a ‘free ticket’ with such a solid backup :)
We recommend that your backup system be capable of, and configured to backup everything. Too often, we hear of clients who need to restore a piece of information from their backups, only to find that it is not contained on the backups. Some people only backup the data from their main accounting system for example, and not their other important data such as Word and Excel documents. Your backup device or service must be large enough to fit all of the data from your computer or servers.

a robot lives behind that clear plastic. the robot moves backup tapes around from their holding slots into the drive and back. i wondered for a moment why each tape slot doesn't just get its own drive, but i then it hit me that i'm sure they considered it but it was just too expensive.
Mi sento un vero coglione... Non ho eseguito il backup delle foto delle mie ultime vacanze (12 GB di raw, oltre 1000 scatti) e l'hard disk (un Seagate barracuda 7200.11di da 500 GB con solo 3 mesi di servizio ed usato solo per le immagini) mi ha improvvisamente piantato in asso... La legge di Murphy stabilisce che si possono perdere solo le informazioni importanti, ma essere la conferma del teorema mi scoccia alquanto, anche perché quando succede agli altri con un sorrisetto mefitico chiedo sempre se hanno eseguito un backup... Queste foto sono le uniche, già elaborate, che mi restano... Mi sento davvero uno $7r0n20!
Wie wichtig Datensicherungen sind weiß man spätestens dann, wenn man selber mal wichtige Daten verloren hat.
Inzwischen habe ich die für mich perfekte Lösung diesbezüglich gefunden!
Täglich! wird ein Backup meiner Bildbibliothek auf eine zweite Festplatte kopiert.
Von dort aus geht es einmal die Woche auf mein NAS-System, welches die gesicherten Datein (Sowohl JPGs als auch Raw`s) in zwei verschiedene Cloudlösungen hochlädt.
Es müsste nun schon wirklich mit dem Teufel zugehen, wenn hier was passieren sollte.
Im "schlimmsten Fall" sind die Arbeiten von einer Woche betroffen, welche sich dann aber mit einer hohen Wahrscheinlichkeit auf der Speicherkarte befinden.
Fazit: 2 lokale und 2 externe Backups, alles vollautomatisch :)
