Local storage

“

- Now, I want to take a closer look at local storage and what's involved in just that segment of the backup plan. We start with the working volume. All of the work that's being done is done on that drive or that protected storage device. One backup locally is all you need and extra local backup is a good idea because it protects from theft or some kind of damage that is localized like a flood. You'd be surprised at how many floods happen that have nothing to do with rising rivers. They're more likely to have with a failed dishwasher or an overflowing toilet. A separate local backup on another drive in another place in the house is a really great way to make sure that you can get to your data very quickly in case of one of these minor disasters.
