1460757 2019-05-30 23:00:00 piroska yep I do that. but hell I be having to buy 2x4TB HDD's, one for the saved data and another to use strictly as a backup drive for the other most used one. Well I could but I would need a 50% wage increase :D

You better buy 1 more for offsite backup :-)

1460758 2019-05-30 23:29:00 I just back up the stuff that really matters to me, it's not the end of the world for me if I have to reinstall windows and my programs.
So for my photo's I have them backed up at home and on the cloud, and my music collection is on 3 different drives in various places.

Everything else can be lost and it's just inconvenient.

Thats why I hardly ever backup my home PC & Media PC . Losing years of 'stuff' wouldnt be such a bad thing :-)

Who really needs 1000's of photos saved forever , emails going back 15 years, backups of obelete programs, MP3's & vids that will never be played again anyway
When we're dead, the whole lot will be wiped & gone anyway.
