How important are your digital photographs to you? What would it be like if tomorrow your hard drive containing all of your images died? You say, no problem - they are all backed up on an external drive. That is a good answer but what if next week your home was robbed or worse your home had a fire and all those hard drives were lost! I know it is not a pleasant thought but it could happen. Not only would it involve your photographs but all of the other files you have generated over the years (spreadsheets, documents, tax information, etc.). A little over a year ago I heard a podcast about companies that will remotely store your files on their secure servers for a modest fee. I reviewed them and decided to use a company called "Backblaze". They offer unlimited storage space for only $50 a year and the files are backed up in real time. For only a few dollars a month it is a relief to know my files are secure and recoverable.
