Hi Shaun,
Actually, for basic document storage it doesn't require much space,
and a person can get by with free cloud storage with the various cloud
storage providers. I believe Microsoft gives those with a Windows Live
account 7 GB free. That's quite a bit for basic documents. Obviously,

ok thats quite low.
To be honest though I don't always backup the backup drive as often
as I should, every 6 months or so I try to remember what I need to
back up, but since I don't really get to much that I get that worried
about bar a few podcasts I try to keep things backed up.

Hi Charles,
No arguing with that. A slate and stylus is an inexpensive way to
write down keys on a braille sheet of paper. It might be slow and
tedious, but it is affordable and doesn't require sighted help.
