Go to Post Yes, it is fun. Its fun to watch the students expand their thinking and look outside the "normal" and watch their thoughts explode! Its also fun to watch the mentor's minds fry trying to out think the students.;) - Robert Cawthon [more]

Re: External HDD for History

Much like EHaskins wrote, but different: Get 2 drives, copy everything onto both. Team gets one, you keep the other, on a shelf. When other drive crashes, copy your drive onto yet another. Repeat as necessary.

This can also be done year after year - fill each drive, copy it, then put one on a shelf. Repeat forever.

Just be sure to pick a technology that will be supported in the future (such as USB or SATA), or maintain a machine just for that purpose (Consider 8-inch floppy disks; good luck finding a drive if you don't have one already)
