Re: Backup media

Photos on Amazon Photos, Google Photos, & removable HDs.

Documents in OneDrive, Google Drive, & removable HDs.

Photos are backed up automatically from phone/tablet to Google & Amazon, and when I copy them over from my camera’s memory card, again backed up automatically.

I have a cycle of 4 removable HDs (old 256GB drives from defunct laptops) where I back up photos and documents weekly, and they are kept in a different room from my PC (the latest one is in my "GO!"* bag, where we keep copies of important docs and our passports in case we needed to evacuate the house for some reason).

*habit I picked up from work, when (on a rota) I would the DR/Emergency Situation Co-ordinator 1 week out of 8).
