You know what? I’ve got these awesome screenshots of some epic online moments with him. We’re talking gameplays, chats, and those hilarious “lol” moments. They’re like treasures to me, so I’m definitely gonna hold onto them and bring them up in conversations every now and then. They make for some great talking points, like a conversation piece of art.
True, just encountered another instance.
Yep, I had a friend that matched exactly as the opposite of a data hoarder.
I asked him why would he behaves that way, not even saving the photos to hard drives when he switched to new phones. He said he hate his past, and there’s nothing to look behind from present time. He had only few of his sport car’s photos, few of his cat’s photos, not much photos even moments with his girl friend. At the age of mid 20s, he has at most 1GB of his valuable data to keep.
The thing is that, I got way more data (estimating maybe 3TB more) of data to be 3-2-1 backed, thus 3x3=9TB total space. My setup here can barely handle 2 sets of my important data sadly… I’m have to purchase some large disks in order to do that, thus the problem goes back to management (too many disks already)
Thank you for your feedback! I’ve made the changes to the post as you suggested, and I also included an image of the Excel sheet I created. Take a look and let me know if there are any further improvements I could have made.
As the cold storage drives only connect from time to time, wouldn’t it be challenging for any automations to work in this situation? I definitely want to automate it but it might require some ledgers logging or something else for pending sync tasks… e.g when drive A and B simultaneously plugged in, sync these set of data… etc
I find those “unselected” photo videos be also important for memories. You might want to just archive the “unselected” ones and open it like a treasure box 10 years later. You might find it valuable and glad you did not delete those 10 years later. Just my 2 cents of opinion haha
