Re: A cautionary tale



I'm also using Jungle disk.

My setup is:

2 x twin drive external usb enclosures into the pc/server (mainly
containin=
g films)

Time capsule in the next room under a sofa backing up my macbook,
including=
30gb of photos.

Jungle disk - backing up my photo library


Next step is to replace the drives in the enclosures with 1.5tb drives,
fre=
eing up one of the enclosures to be moved upstairs into a cupboard and to
a=
ct as a duplicate backup of the 1st enclosure.

So i'll end up with films backed up albeit in the same house

Photos backed up both in the house and on jungle disk

As per one of the other posts photos are without doubt the most precious
th=
ing in my digital data world!
