Thank you very much (y)(y). I am proud to say that I really love and admire Vlad Tepes, the Romanian ruler.To bad that he cannot travel in time and begin to make order in my country as he use to do hundreds of years ago :D It would be a pretty site to see everywhere thousands of spikes for (or with) the politicians from my country.:devilish:
Sorry for the OT.
 
Do you have Aomei Backupper"s cloud? if not and you can afford it, its nice to have a cloud backup with external backup( if you can get drive for it) (Macrium ) then your Hasleo on computer
Have you restored with any or all? sure would like to know how they have worked for you. Thanks gl

Thanks for the comment.No i don't have a cloud backup but....i have my backup files on 3 different external HDs. This way i make sure that everything will work even if a HD is dead for some reason.All the backup files were tested and working ,Hasleo is waiting the restoring test.

External back ups is the best method. Cloud servers can be breached, malware can happen on the system, hardware can fail. The latter part is important, even external devices can fail, so multiple copies/devices is recommended.
