I'm a believer in you can never have too many back ups to your data files whether it's files for your arranger, photos or documents.

I usually have 3 back ups that I keep on separate 320 or 500 gig portable hard drives. One drive travels with me to and from my day job and the other remains in a fireproof lock up at my office the third is sitting on a shelf at home.

This past Tuesday I did my latest back up for files I use on my s910. I have 2 USB flash drives with the data on them, one stays in my keyboard case in case of failure on a gig. Yesterday I was at another arranger forum and copied hundreds of 3rd party styles then were transferring them to an Eagle Tec USB mini drive. I'm still not sure what happened(I do have an idea why) but most of my files disappeared and I was left only a few hundred 3rd party styles. I wasn't to happy especially since I have a gig later today, but with the back ups I have restored the drive that failed in a few minutes.......can't have too many back ups.
