Hey my friends,
I'll try to be brief. For reasons unknown, when I reverted my Win 10 back to 7 (10 is a total nightmare!) my Hitachi Touro external HDD wouldn't be recognized...and it had every copy of my old PC's content, every family photo I've ever taken the last 15 yrs +, all I value digitally. Can't risk this again, I tried to load it to the Cloud, but it took like 10 minutes to do maybe 20 pics, I have 15,000! It would take a month to back it up to the Cloud at that pace, I could just buy a 2nd HDD, but I've got all my USB ports in use..please share with me how you guys safely back up your prized family photos.
Thanks so much
PS All I had to do to fix my HDD...it had 2 ports for the USB, I plugged it into the 2nd one and it was fixed immediately.
