And the compulsive engineer will raise his hand and tell you that safety backups require that your valuable work be on two different memory systems. Internal Hard drive and External Hard Drive, Memory Stick and External Hard Drive, On-Line-Backup and Internal Hard Drive, etc. Koz Agree wholeheatedl...
