    Default Workflow, backup Best Practice

    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.
    The 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.

    I really need to get the optical thing going. the problem is offsite storage. a safe deposit box maybe? It seems so 'the movies'.
