Can you ask, UGREEN, or do you know if they will make a DAS version of this? Thanks

[@robertleem5643]

I have a 16tb hard drive where I edit my photos, my 4 bay NAS is the first backup and files from my main photo drive are backed up to the NAS, the NAS also has other stuff like media files. I also own a DAS and every month I copy my files from the NAS to my DAS When I go away I take a spare HD and backup my photos everyday to this drive and also store them on my laptop which I take with me, I then remote connect and upload my days photos to my NAS in another area of

Thank you for making even the "boring" stuff interesting. There is a lot packed in there, but it's clear and well presented

[@AlexArmitage]

Glad you enjoyed it!

my backup: after event, i dump the raw on my laptop, get to the hotel laptop sync on Dropbox, edit the event, and then export as a new catalog on HDD and cloud. For personal stuff on two different HDD

[@AliasJimWirth]

This is my biggest issue right now, Alex. The number one thing on my mind I am trying to solve related to photography. What a timely video for me. Thank you very much for addressing this most important aspect of photography, and for your sound advice concerning it.

[@AlexArmitage]

Always. Thanks so much Jim

Great (essential) video! Agree fully. Instead of NAS, I have 3x 4TB drives (1x SSD, 2x HDD) on my Windows PC, with drives 2 and 3 being redundant copies of the SSD, via daily incremental backups. The main SSD is synced to Dropbox. One secondary HDD is synced to another cloud storage provider (in case Dropbox goes bankrupt ;-) ) . Finally I save all my images as both raw and JPG, so there is always a redundant JPG copy, already on the SD card. 4TB is enough for now, as I am an amateur photographer who doesn't need extreme storage (yet).

That's great, but what happens to your catalogs after you die (?)

[@KCCapek]

Hey, how does one back up the Lightroom edited photos ( catalog) if they had to be on current working computer. Thanks

Hello! I have a question. I’m planning on ditching google photos and get myself one of these. My question is : since you can create user profiles. If two different users backup their photos, will they be stored in the same photo library ? Or will each user have their own ? For example say I have a 100 picture of a dog and my wife has 100 pictures of a cat, when I open the photos app. Will I see 200 pictures under my account ?

[@AlexArmitage]

I was not using the Ugreen photo app so I can't speak to that. That being said, different users have different backup folders.

[@MasterWolf1213]

I didn’t think I’d like this video because I don’t have a bunch of photos to store. But… it was entertaining and informative. Bravo.👏

[@AlexArmitage]

How about the filming location though

If it's not backed up, it's not important

If someone steals your car you are totally screwed. Unlike a house where a burglar goes for only valuables, if your car is stolen they have EVERYTHING. They would even have your iPhone/laptop computers that have all your passwords (keychains) to your cloud backups. Hope you have all your passwords saved at your parents or friend’s house as well as yearly backups and old laptop. This is the problem of living in a car with all your worldly possessions in one place.

[@AlexArmitage]

These are facts. Yes.

[@bobby350z]

How does someone get your phone/laptop passwords?

Thanks for the video.

Sounds good but doesn't ship to the UK 😢

[@AliasJimWirth]

Alex, you are a very tech savvy guy. What about AI scanning my online cloud storage images and using them for its knowledge data base?

[@AlexArmitage]

I can’t imagine there’s a way you could stop this for sure unless you just don’t partake

[@AliasJimWirth]

That thumbnail. thought you had bought a new guitar pedal 😂

[@chrismassa5891]

Good info

[@REGameFly]

I'd want to do this but thinking on how to setup a second Backup NAS. Also not really sure how to set up 10gig

[@AlexArmitage]

10gig switch or router. Cat 6E or 7 cables!

[@pingbookent]

Just a sponsored video. Get a proper nas like Synology.
