But some home owner/rental insurance will cover it if it occurred from "power surge".<BR/><BR/>Todd Melet:<BR/>Read your post, you are leaving out one MAJOR thing in the strategy...REMOTE backup. Fire, theft, and flooding can take out your primary and backup. You need to either:<BR/>1) Use a remote backup service online.<BR/>2) Buy a second backup drive, do a weekly or at least monthly backup to it, and take it to a friends house or your office, some other location in case of fire, theft, flood! You are exposed to these risks while you have both drives with you, so this takes some diligence.Petehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00669515029741629008noreply@blogger.com
