Poll: What do you backup your data to?

[dairyman]

I thought it would be interesting to find out who uses a floppy disk, USB drive, External Hard Drive, CD-ROM or Tape to backup their documents.

I use Acronis TrueImage to image a my whole HD to external HD. I also use DVDs to save some installation files, and temporary backups.

[Broni]

In this case, you should allow more, then one vote for each person.

[dairyman]

OK. But how do I do that? Does it need to be done when the poll is created?

[Broni]

There is an option there:


[file cleanup - saving space - attachment deleted by admin]

[dairyman]

When I go to Edit Poll that option is not there.

[Broni]

Maybe, it's there when you start poll, only.

[dairyman]

OK. But I'll make sure I'll allow users to choose more options next time I post a poll similar to this.

[Broni]

Maybe some Mod can change it, I don't know.

Yes, we can

I voted "Patio Will Love This Poll" since I have this horribly bad habit of not making external backups. (If I had a DVD burner, I might change this... but, I dont)

I have considered hooking up a computer to my network as a workgroup just for backing up and storing, but, eh.

I tend to back up to a local separate partition, which, will fail on HDD failure, but, its good enough for me at the moment.

[Broni]

Yes, we can

Since some people backup to, say, two different medias, we wanted to allow one poster to have more, then one choice.

Done

You can change your vote by clicking "Remove Vote" where the poll is, and now select multiple answers and re-submit your vote

Nice. Thank you.

[dairyman]

Thank you Zylstra for editing the poll.

My pick was cdrom but would also have selected removable hdd and internal hdd had they been available.
