After a long project, the last thing you want is to lose all of your data. Everything can be lost in an instant. That's why it is so important to backup all of your media. So how do you go about that? The best strategy is to have 3 copies of your data in 2 places and only work from 1. Your first copy is your working copy. If you're working by yourself, try to use a RAID array to help protect your data. If you are working with a team, you can use a collaborative editing server like the LumaForge Jellyfish. This will allow your team to work from the same footage at the same time, and includes the projects of a RAID. Your second copy is meant to be an easily accessible backup of your working copy. This is sometimes called a near-line backup. This should also have some sort of RAID protections if possible. The Promise Pegasus, OWC Thunderbay, and G-SPEED Shuttle are good examples. Your third copy should be a long-term or archival copy. There are two primary options for this. The first is a cloud backup. The benefit of cloud is how easy it is to access. Additionally, you don't have to personally upkeep the data. The cloud service does that for you. The second option is to do an LTO backup. There is an up-front cost with the LTO drive. However, once you've purchased the drive, the cost per TB is about $10-12. Written by Patrick Southern See less
