Most people realize too late that they didn’t have backups of their data or don’t realize they can easily setup their own media servers at home. What do you use and suggest? Everything from beginner tech knowledge to advance. TIA

    Are there certain brands of external hard drives you recommend for local backup?

      The WD elements drives are pretty rock solid. The drives themselves are WD reds inside, which are very reliable. The only iffy thing is if the control board (the device that converts USB to the internal drive) can fail, but that’s true for any external. It’s my go-to backup solution.
