I know it's not the first time we've discussed this, but I'm reaching a point where I'm considering cloud storage options again myself for a few reasons - but the main one being that I get so busy I sometimes forget to run my manual backups often enough. I've had many customers lose everything due to hard drive failure (including one forumite only yesterday who thankfully had backed up) so it's got my head ticking again.
So.....
How do you go about backing up?
If you use a cloud service - which? how much? what you get.... etc.
If you don't back up at all, be honest. You will not be alone. I even know businesses without backups!
I currently have only manual backups in place which I intended to run weekly, but more often than not it's turned into monthly or even longer. (yep - I should practice what I preach a bit more!)
I'm considering Livedrive again, but only as a personal user as I know I can't make the reseller platform pay for itself. Of course I'd still keep my manual backups in place on a "when I remember" basis too.
