049 - Travel, hard-drives and the LaCie Rugged All-Terrain hard disk
This week Craig and Linda talk about taking hard-drives on the road with you. Who on earth wants to carry that extra weight? Listen to find out! We admit to being that person and follow up with a review of the LaCie Rugged All-Terrain hard disk. For more information on the LaCie Rugged visit the manufacturer’s website.
Obviously, a travel hard-drive is only something that laptop-carriers will want. If you do have a laptop, why carry a second hard-drive? Because you should be doing some sort of backup — you don’t want to lose years of travel photos! Most people can use either a USB drive or DVDs to do their backing up. People that go through a lot of data — writers, photographers, itinerant travel podcasters — should consider a hard-disk backup.
We spend quite a lot of time talking about the competitions that we are running during February. We have two winners of the Bed Bug Travel Guide this week: we draw two names from our newsletter subscribers each week in February. This week they go to Jesse and M Hutt - Congratulations!
