[QUOTE="6string, post: 1031878, member: 120039"] There are online backup solutions, but I don't know how comfortable I would be about sharing my HD over the internet. Ok, I do know.... I would be very uncomfortable with online backups, and would never do that! You can get an external HD from around $40 upwards.... and at around $5 a month for online backups, it is a cheaper and and more secure option. If the backups are really important (sentimental items, business specific, etc) it is best to have 2 backup drives. One that you keep at your residence, and another in a safe secure location where your computer is not stored. Here is a link to online backups: [url=http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2288745,00.asp]The Best Online Backup Services Roundup | PCMag.com[/url] [/QUOTE]
