- asselinpaul 13y agoThanks
- photoGrant 13y agoUnfortunately I don't. There's the typical areas I put them -- Facebook, Twitter, etc. In terms of archiving there is no professional solution. Hear me dev's? No quality professional solution. I'd gladly smash $100/mo in your pocket for one.

- ctb_mg 13y agoCan you define what you are looking for in 'professional solution'?
- ctb_mg 13y agoI have a mirrored copy of all RAW files on a local file server, separate disk. A daily cron takes care of the mirroring using rdiff-backup. Every time I do a shoot, when I bring the RAW files into workflow I also export them as fullsize jpgs. Those are what's sent/stored in the cloud (rsync.net). I do this in the interest of saving space/money/time -- I am not a professional and I only have 768 kb/s upload (if that). The mirrored raw files cover idiot mistakes/disk crash, the jpegs in the cloud covers the more catastrophic fires, theft, flood, etc.
