Laptop
My computer has been screwing up lately. Taking forever to boot up and just acting funny....isn't it weird how you give your equipment a personality. Well anyways Steve told me that he noticed it also and that we have to keep in mind how long these systems are suppose to last, and that maybe I might want to shut it down at night. I know I should do that - Thats not new to me, but I never do. Nope never do it - so I'm going to try and remember to do it this week. He suggested that I save all my stuff but most of the stuff on my system is college which I can save to a thumb drive no problem but the big part is pictures. I'm not sure how I should back them up or what exactly I should do with that. I have years of pictures on this thing. gonna have to do some research on that one.

Buy a 300 Gbyte USB external hard drive. Plug it in (sets itself up and gives itself a drive letter) and copy every thing you want to save to it. I have all my pictures copied to one and on the computer hard drive (two copies then) and once a year I make another copy to DVD/CD. Thus 3 copies of all past years. Just about everything else can be rebuilt, can't get back pictures. :)
ReplyDeleteI agree. An external hard drive is the way to go!
