Quick backup question...


Recommended Posts

  • Members

. I've read that data on shelved inert SSDs will eventually go south. I want to clone my system to a second ssd while it is still compact and keep one or the other as a backup. What if I just leave the backup running in the computer? Is this wise or even necessary?

Hmmm... good question! I think there are some definite risks with leaving it in the computer - if you get a virus or other major problem (major power surge from a lightning strike, etc.), it could take down anything connected to the system, including the backup.

 

Maybe all you need to do is to power it up occasionally? :idk:
