- r0m4n0 12y agoYep, a good mitigation plan is a 2tb time capsule. All my precious cat photos are backed up on the regular, encrypted and within reach.
- TeMPOraL 12y agoAs long as you remember to keep that drive unplugged - otherwise it'll get cryptolocked with everything else.
- pmontra 12y agoI do have a physical hard disk for my backups but I also backup some critical data "on the cloud" (actually, some servers of mine). There is always a chance that the pc and the disk are stolen by a burglar or my house catches fire. Then there is the matter of making the encryption and access keys survive any of those events.
