Click to expand... I think a USB disk is a better storage device.

Magma Expert Licensed User Longtime User Feb 20, 2023 #6 Well my personal experience is that the best is the "paper"... but in digital life... you must have many backups... 1) CD-DVDs.... I have many projects 20-25years... in expensive DVDs... that have holes in their magnetic... surface :-( (i think that can live for sure in special cases... about 10 years) 2) HDD's ..... mechanical hard disks... with data... (better change them every 5-7years) 3) SSD.... you never know... may be live - may be not (all about chips and current) 4) USB sticks... need to put them every some months to a usb (charge them, is a flash memory...) - many of mine oxidized :-( 5) CLOUD... google, onedrive... need to pay them a lot... and who knows ... what they are doing with your photos
