What's everyone doing for backing up your photos? Is anyone using a cloud-based service? Which one and how do you like it?
I usually buy 2 external hard drives per year and use them as a double back-up in case one fails. I also keep 1 of the copies from previous years in a different location in case of a fire/break-in/etc. I've been slacking on buying drives for this year, and I'm starting to get tired of collecting hard drives so cloud might work. I just like how much faster it is to load photos onto an external and grab them later. Uploading hundreds of gigs of photos to the cloud does not sound appealing though.
