I don’t know. An external hard drive? Don’t live in the past is my main advice. What’s gone is gone. I have like two usb sticks, in different places with the most important data on each of them. The rest is non essential.
I’m a “best tool for the job” kinda person, and since only a few of the games I play work on Linux, my gaming PC will stay on Win10 til I’m forced to upgrade. We can all pretend that Linux comes anywhere close to the ease of use and compatibility of Windows or OS X, but it doesn’t. I wouldn’t be caught dead using anything Microsoft in a production capacity, or using Linux or OS X for gaming. Linux support for games has come a really long way, but I’m not going to hamstring myself just on principle, especially one as ridiculous as OS loyalty.
Microsoft person?
I’m not an anything person. If anything, I’m a “please don’t show me any OS related content in my feed at all” person.
I bet your one of these type people.
How would you recommend average users back up their content in case of hardware loss or failure?
