I have all of the pictures taken by my family members dating back to 1885 or so. Scanned form slides, prints, and even plates and etchings.
All together they make up about 60,000 images and take just over 40gig to store (they average 500k/1M each). I have them here on disk, on a flash drive in my safe-deposit, and on a server on a different continent, juuuussst in case.
- newyorker 16y agoWow, may I ask which continent and why there? Someplace neutral or the like? Australia?
- noonespecial 16y agoAdelaide, South Australia. I work down there. Go once or twice a year. Its just about the farthest civilized place you can go from here without starting to come back. Anything less than an ELE and my data's good. 4 generations worth of pictures and records starts to feel a little bit like a legacy. I want to make sure my children can get it if/when something happens to me.
