A better solution is to save projects into a Dropbox folder. That way they are always backed up and you can always download them from dropbox.com if you lose/delete them.Gps wrote:I always make an extra copy.
If you don't want to use dropbox, don't make copies on the same computer. Save them to a flash drive or something similar. Typically a hard drive problem big enough to lose data will destroy the copy as well, especially if they are on the same area of the drive.
