I happened to say this weekend that I really, really want to get around to this before it&#8217;s too late &#8212; and today, my 1TB back-up drive with I can&#8217;t even tell you how many photos, including a good chunk of my professional work and most of my first 365, stopped working.  I&#8217;m still holding out faint hope even as I&#8217;m sick with the possible loss &#8212; but at least it wasn&#8217;t *everything*.<\/p>\n<p>At least I have whatever is on the laptop, which is 80% of the digital negatives from the last year or so, and most but not all of my other documents.  Silver lining, I suppose. Beloved has downloaded some diagnotic tools, so maybe all is not yet lost.<\/p>\n<p>So anyway, do you do online backups and if so, with what company?  I&#8217;ve heard good things about Carbonite, and Rogers Online Protection would be an easy choice as we already use them for cable and Internet.  We have an HP laptop running Windows, for whatever that&#8217;s worth.  Any opinions or advice are most welcome, thanks!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey bloggy peeps, I need your advice.
