16Sep 14:32 gotta run, CW class	(KQ4CCC Eric NC FM14fs )
16Sep 14:32 your computer will happily write corrupted data to disk completely oblivious	(KQ4CCC Eric NC FM14fs )
16Sep 14:32 ECC RAM too! i think it's absolutely insane that people will spend all kinds of money/time protecting data on disk, and then just leave it to the wolves in RAM	(KQ4CCC Eric NC FM14fs )
16Sep 14:30 but i dread the time/cost it would take me to backup that much crap to either the cloud or even USB drives and stick em in a safe or offsite somewhere	(KQ4CCC Eric NC FM14fs )
16Sep 14:30 connie took a lighting hit  he had a backup  after he build the new computer i log in restore everything for him	(K0TPP/2/6/222 Larry mo EM48rk )
16Sep 14:29 indeed. i would cry for sure	(KQ4CCC Eric NC FM14fs )
16Sep 14:29 yes but it,s a pain in the axx to loss anything	(K0TPP/2/6/222 Larry mo EM48rk )
16Sep 14:28 i don't have anything that important not already stored on the server. i mainly worry about family pictures/videos. everything else would be replaceable with enough time	(KQ4CCC Eric NC FM14fs )

16Sep 14:23 especially when running VMs etc...i can just snapshot the entire system instantly at any point in time, and if somethings gets fouled up, just roll it back like nothing ever happened	(KQ4CCC Eric NC FM14fs )
16Sep 14:22 snapshotting is great too. makes data recovery in case of human error a piece of cake	(KQ4CCC Eric NC FM14fs )
16Sep 14:21 yes if you don,t need it fast  hdd still is good for big  backup i bet arrl wish they had more backup a few years ago	(K0TPP/2/6/222 Larry mo EM48rk )

16Sep 14:15 backing up 20~Plus~TB gets expensive, especially with SSD	(KQ4CCC Eric NC FM14fs )
