sashagrey Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 I've been using an 8gb usb drive as the primary backup for my work projects but I've always wondered if it is as reliable as a standard HD. Should I be concerned? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synthohol Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 no removable/rewritable media should be 100% reliable, neither are HDDs.i would burn DVDs as backups and use the flash as temporary storage. but im the paranoid type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you implying DVDs are 100% reliable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted November 3, 2009 Corsair Employee Share Posted November 3, 2009 Nothing is 100% there is always a chance for the unexpected, but I would tend to agree with Synthohol but to each his own but redundancy will minimize the chance of data loss no matter what media you use.
