my backup is automated

How do you permanently store 300-500 GB of data in a way that is recoverable after natural disaster, burglary, solar storms, government raids, 1-10 years of no electricity, fire, etc?

SD cards spread around in various places?

>using 1 year old 2.5 1TB HDD on laptop that gets power outages regularly
how worried should I be?

>>53467918
Oh yeah, didn't see it.

>>53467948
Those are not mini-disks, right?

>>53467819
I don't think there is anything remotely safe like that, what if there's an event that causes no electricity for a long duration of time?

I heard something like printing a few important pictures on photo paper (4x6) that mean everything to you in a tiny album, in a case that's already pre-packed for emergencies.

I have never made a backup in my life, I just save the very few actually important files I ever need on an USB stick in the rare occasions when I need them. I wouldn't miss anything else even if my PC exploded.

nigga, do u not have any cousins, parents, friends?

>normal people
take pics with camera
upload to major site like google
will always be there
>/g/
take picture with camera
2. backup to local computer
3. backup to local laptop
4. backup to local nas
5. backup to local usb stick
6. backup to local usb/hdd to fireproof/waterproof safe
7. get in car
8. drive to bank
9. put 3rd usb into safety deposit box at local bank
obviously all usb-sticks/hdds are encrypted
take one new picture
repeat steps 1 thru 9
also for extra precautions, you would have to store another usbstick at a different bank in another city/state just in case there was a natural disaster in your city. would be bad if a flood happened and destroyed your house and the bank.

>not doing backups in batches

>>53468632
>backing up all your files in one location (house)
>implying its safer than google always up & redundant servers

>>53468649
>google acquired by apple
>apple shuts down services

I don't have anywhere to back it up because I'm a cheap shit.

>>53468663
>flooding happens
>house destroyed
be 2008 recession
store your backups at local bank
bank closes

natural disasters & banks going bankrupt happens way more than an extremely popular cloud service. want to be paranoid? encrypt files first

natural disasters & banks going bankrupt happens way more than an extremely popular cloud service shutting down without notice.
most companies will give you notice to download your files
