Do you have relatives?
Do you see them once or twice a year?
Maybe they could keep a back-up hard drive for you.
My dad's slides out-lived him and mine will out-live me, but
everything I'm shooting from here on out is digital (mainly).
I'm going to have #1 son hold a back-up as soon as I get
C'mon, Graydon, be serious.
I've got 10,000+ slides in slide pages in loose leaf binders in a closet. If
we have a fire or a flood, they're gone. It will be sad, but that's life.
Where am I supposed to find a terabyte of convenient, secure, affordable remote
storage for photos? They're back

Complicated question, as it depends on whether or not you actually
imported the originals (Masters) into Lightroom, or just imported
reference

That's an interesting idea...

I'm happy with a 200 gig pocket drive that I make my 3rd backup to,
which I keep in my car in the alley.
A. I have all my master images with me wherever I go. RAW & Jpeg.
B. It's offsite, but only 30 seconds away.
C. Being USB powered, any computer can access it.
D. It's not that expensive.
