I don't delete photos from the memory stick from my camera so I have a secondary backup of photos from my camera but I can't do that with the Iphone 5 and 6 that I have. With 99% of all my photo's being taken on the Iphone 6, i want a way to back them up other than on Time Machine.
I have a external hard drive that I use to run Time Machine with but I have more lots of photo's that I don't need on my 2008 Mac laptop. I probably don't have enough room on the 250 GB SATA Disk internal hard drive to hold all my photo's.
I have burned some of the photo's on DVD, is that good enough for long term storage?
Can I somehow use my external hard drive to use it to store files that are not on my Mac's hard drive and still use that hard drive for Time Machine?
I did a Time Machine of all the photo's last time I upgraded to Yosemite but I can't find any of the photo's from the that saved file. The photo's are just the photo's that are on my laptop current hard drive.
I am planning on doing a clean install of El Capitan from Yosemite as El Capitan is the last operating system my 2008 can handle if that makes any difference.
