Eh?Just thought to mention as far as backing up or transferring or storing files I have a 1 terabyte ssd which with an adapter I plug into usb connector just like you would use a thumb drive or memory stick.
A good questionI'm curious as to what it is that you guys are all storing that requires space and backups? I can see the digital art and video need space. No criticism/judgement I'm just genuinely curious - just broad categories will do. I have one google sheets workbook and a few docs plus a few Youtube playlists saved in the cloud.
Very good advice. Was I sensible and took it easy? Actually, probably notgood news that you feel like a new Duracell Bunny - take it easy though.
I normally get a pat on the back if I have tried as its a start, I have a badge that says "I tried" and also one that says "survive out of spite". Think someone is trying to tell me somethingdo you know what cack handed means?
or instead of DiY it's Fiy!!!!!
But if I'm shown a coup!e of times, it gets easier!
Spreadsheets to keep track of bank account; important e-mails; addresses and phone numbers; diabetes information; family history; family stories for Em; solicitor letters and documents; crofting information; stories my brother has written and sent to me for editing; stories I have written/am writing; recipes; calendars of events; draft layouts for stories I have written and passed on for finishing; photographs; two books that I edited and did page layouts for (should archive them but haven't done so yet); prescription lists for myself and for Neil; last year's crofting census, kept so that I know what I said last year; favourite poems; favourite songs; songs I want to learn; Blue Badge scheme documents; DVLA confirmation that tax is paid for the car; lots of documents about the origins of writing; documents on printing technology; a file of funeral programmes that I have printed for people - can't archive it because my own one is in that folder (I want things done my way); probably lots more that I can't think of at the moment. All that can be saved onto external memory but a backup copies the whole system from log in to appearance to software - that's why I need a backup that works.I'm curious as to what it is that you guys are all storing that requires space and backups?

Very clever!Found this in a desktop file and thought it might make someone smile:
Why do computers crash?
If a packet hits a pocket on a
socket on a port,
and the bus is interrupted as
a very last resort,
and the access of the memory
makes your memory stick abort,
then the socket packet pocket has
an error to report.
If your cursor finds a menu item
followed by a dash
and the double-clicking icon puts
your window in the trash,
and your data is corrupted ‘cos
the index doesn’t hash,
then your situation’s hopeless
and your system’s gonna crash!
If the label on the cable on the
table at your house,
says the network is connected to
the button on your mouse,
but your packets want to tunnel
to another protocol,
that’s repeatedly rejected by the
printer down the hall,
and your screen is all distorted by
the side effects of gauss,
so your icons in the window are
as wavy as a souse;
then you may as well reboot and
go out with a bang,
‘cos sure as i’m a poet, the
system’s gonna hang.
When the copy of your CD’s
getting sloppy on the disk,
and the macrocode instructions
cause unnecessary risk,
then you’ll have to flash the
memory and you’ll want to RAM
your ROM …
then quickly turn the ‘puter off
and run to tell your mum.

Me neither, but it let me click through and look at it .Unfortunately, I don't have Facebook, so I can't see this.
Good that you will be keeping in touch but am I missing something? Borg - Star Trek, old Norse fortification, German for credit?New years day I had a pleasant experience . John Campbell's mother asked me to speak to a young guy in a deep depression two years ago, she thought I could help ( cos of my background) with a guy at their church.
We were friends cos we went to same church as John and Mary Campbell in Carlisle, in the 90s. We had an enjoyable time in their house group . They were just bit older than us and he was a Bible Greek scholar and had taught a number in the church greek . Its greek of Aexander the greats armies koine, they were just bit older than us. I worked at the hospital then.
I remember the owner of the house behaved like an angry young man, until he went to Israel for two weeks and he was a spiritual giant and loved every body when he came back.
He played a guitar well and we all sang to it, if the neighbours heard us they didn't complain.
This year the young guy left the area and moved on, I contacted him briefly but later that month I had a heart attack and it was only this month. I contacted him again but he was on my mind many times. He was more the age what a grandson would be.
We had a short text exchange and we will keep in touch the guy was a second generation jw and it was expected to never leave what his parents taught him.
So the Borg cut him off. So did his parents family and friends.
I think his wife eventually parted company taking their small child but I am not certain, but it is usual ,. it was not surprising he could not keep going in his job as a teacher and had a breakdown.
He'd gone to university and then done a teacher's certificate. A no no for the Borg he should have been a window cleaner.
He wanted to know how I was doing and he been trying to put his life together. I was really pleased he had his mental breakdown two years ago and was improving.
We shall keep in touch.
