I wouldn't dream of using a flash-drive as primary backup. If the
flash-drive broke, was stolen or lost, Mozy went bust and my house
burned down all on the same day, that *would* be a bad day.

Personally I'd never "store" anything of any importance on a thumb drive. I
*always* backup any changed data to the computer in which the drive is plugged into
before unplugging it.
Thumb drivers were designed to transport data from one computer to another, not
to be a main storage device.
Thanks for using Legacy.
