[photoshop-beginners] don't forget...What is the Point?

And the thing that most people forget about backup drives is that you really want to keep a set of backup files NOT in the same building as your tower.  By doing so, if you get robbed or the place burns, either way, all  your files are still gone....

I was so glad I had my backup drive when my computer crashed!  I was able to restore all my files, programs, etc. with no problems. I wouldn't be without one.

  Well, first and foremost, I use mine as backup, not sole storage.
  Wherever you store your documents / data / photos,  never store them in 
  only 1 place.
  
  As for  durability /  lifespan, external or internal are about same, but 
  if you use
  your external as backup and don't leave it on all the time, should last 
  much longer...
