Your life’s work exists on drives. Most of us don’t have a room full of negatives anymore, or filing cabinets full of information. It’s all on drives.
Backups aren’t a particularly exciting topic for many, but they are critical. I see people treat backups as an afterthought with disturbing regularity. “Yea, I got an external drive I copied to last year around here somewhere…”
