These topics seem to popup quite regularly and I heard this today on a podcast and thought I'd pass this on. There are some nice simple philosophies on workflow and backing up. I especially like the 3-2-1 Backup Rule.
Welcome | dpBestflowThe simplest way to remember how to back up your images safely is to use the 3-2-1 rule.
We recommend keeping 3 copies of any important file (a primary and two backups)
We recommend having the files on 2 different media types (such as hard drive and optical media), to protect against different types of hazards.*
1 copy should be stored offsite (or at least offline).
There is even a pdf quick reference on the home page.
