Don't lose your Family Pictures

Digital cameras make it easy to take lots of photos, but you can easily find yourself without any of them if your computer crashes.All the memories preserved in your family photos now forever lost.

Most people who do backup their photos do it to CD's or DVD's.  But this is a feel good measure that does little good.  CD's and DVD's can start showing errors within three years even when stored in the best of conditions.Only perfect conditions will prevent these errors from happening faster.

And sharing your family photos between your computer, your mates, your kids, is just burdensome.Most just email pictures around the same household or using a free service that imposes restrictions on you.  But there is a much better way that is both inexpensive and easy to use, Internet Attached Storage.

Internet Attached Storage puts online backup, file sharing, and network drive features (like OPENRSM CloudBackup) together.You don't have to give away information and you get to backup all your other key data (like email, documents, spreadsheets) as well.

Here's how it works.  You create an with an Internet Attached Storage provider.You then set up the provided software on every computer with the network drive option selected.Each computer will then perform an automatic backup at the times you configured while also having your new shared folder appear as a network disk.  Here comes the best part of all.You can share a specific folder.  When you do this that folder is available via the network drive on every computer in the house.

No more emailing photos, no more using services that make you give up your privacy.  And all the computers have backup for your other important files (like banking, documents, email) as well as having all those photos available from every computer.This saves loads of space and if bad things happen (like accidental deletion, hard disk failure, etc.) a previous version is in your Internet Attached Storage area.So even if you don't find a damaged picture right away you can copy and paste a previous version back to the original.

Here's the important things to remember.Relying on CDs is a risk you shouldn't take if your photos are important to you. They can scratch easily. Also, some recordable CDs degrade in only a few years.Most photo sharing sites have a cost in control and privacy of your family memories.Internet Attached Storage keeps a backup of your images in the security of a remote place away from danger.  Keeping photos organized makes everything easier because Internet Attached Storage mirrors the structure of your own disk. Ensure you automatically backup new photos, you don't want to lose pictures because you forgot that one time.Make it automatic thus removing the risk of having to remember to do it.

Advanced synchronization, automation, or network drive and folder sharing features are only provided by the best Internet Attached Storage providers.We've taken a look at what's available and think the best you can use is OPENRSM CloudBackup.It has the advanced file sharing, ease of use, and low cost you need to keep your family photos from being lost forever.
