I like the stand alone drive, be it a flash drive or a full size hard drive. .Copy to the "external" drive, copy from it.. and do not erase the files from it.
That way. WHEN, not if, the computer goes crash.. You have not lost any.
Fact... My daughter brought her netbook to me "It's yours if you can get it to work" I ask her if there was anything she wanted. "yes, My photos"
30 minutes later I handed her a CD with her photos on it.
Oh, the computer was working. (Ok I'm not really that good but the virus that killed it was not that good either.. A 30 year old DOS command fixed it just fine)
