I was going through some files that I had archived from last year and that started me thinking, “Man what would happen if…..” Yeah,, exactly I’d be hosed!.. I immediatly went to my fav computer hardware store (The Internet) and picked up a Terrabyte Storage device for all my stuff over the past 3 years. Yes, I’m aware that a terrabyte was a little excessive as I only have about 100gig of stored audio, but I am absolutely positive I will use all of the space on this portable drive. Now, here’s the point of all this.. You should backup all your imaging, no matter how small or trivial it may be, because trust me, one day a PD will come in and ask you to… “remember that bit you produced in 03′ that had that kid in it that said “Your Home for Holidays”? Well, his Mom called and he’s getting married and she wants to play it at the wedding rehearsal”.
Seriously, this has happened to me!
Backing up your most precious audio assets will not only give you piece of mind, it will save you in the long run.. I heard Circuit City is going out of business, I wonder what I can get before the slam the doors shut.
