It's a sad fact that before we realise Our Gadget electronics will move-on; so our precious memories are not recoverable. Formats change, become up-dated, etc. with little regard to L-T loyalty.
Back in history analogue formats were far better for long-term recovery. Even early photographs are still viewable ( although somewhat fuzzy by today's standards ).
Storage is a "regular" here and even that is an issue, depending as it will on many electronic chips surviving - although RAID attempts to reduce this by having multiple drives, it doesn't protect from electrical storm, flood, or theft.
The "Cloud" is an alternative, but free-space is limited and may not be as secure compared with a Subscription.... provided that is the Bank keeps up the payments... Oh dear.
Cheers ! ( but even that isn't entirely positive...) |
