2 terabytes? They could run the New York Stock Exchange with less

We keep and use old files from several years ago. Some design files

30 gigs or so. Add to that files from others on the design teams,
plus
spreadsheets, correspondence, and on and on.


I have four two terabyte drives in my server, with one of those
drives
running a compressed backup of what is on the other three drives.

I think I about two terabytes of data on the server which consists
of
backups of the three computers in the house, folders for archives,
about
750 GB of movies, et cetera. I do nightly backups of my desktop,
plus
weekly backups of my wife's computer and my laptop. I also run an
apple
Time Machine backup of my desktop computer to a separate external
one
terabyte drive.

Pull the plug and you have nothing.



Also have a 17KW generator and a buried 500 gallon LP gas tank.

Ah .... a "prepper" huh?


If he was a real prepper he would use gasoline or diesel, fuel you can easily obtain.

If I had a generator at this house I currently own it would run on natural gas.

17Kw is small for a house the size your wife owns. A 25Kw would be the
minimum. Could you be lying again?

....and a Maryland red barn, and two owls in a tree down by the creek, and a twin-diesel, Volvo
powered trawler to keep up with Wayne, and a well-ridden Ducati motorcycle, and a printer from
WalMart. What more could a guy want?

He probably wrote off the genset as a medical necessity to keep his
apnea machine running.
