But I also wanted to add USB flash drive and external hard disk, as well.
The computer is RAID1, which means a complete copy of absolutely everything - programs, work data, OS, my preferred work environment, other settings, and the kitchen sink, to boot - are saved in the event of a hard disk crash 
You can never be too safe, which is why I strongly recommend various layers of redundancy.

Which reminds me, I should be backing up everything I've done today since lunchtime. 
Happy translating! ▲ Collapse

- While I'm working on the project it's on my computer
- Once it's finished, it gets copied to an external hard drive
- When I have time/inclination it also gets burned to a DVD. At that point, it gets deleted off my computer.
- The DVD is stored in my filing cabinet.
- If I need to work on another computer that is not on my network, it gets moved via a USB flash drive (rare, but it did happen once).

I'm copying all my files onto an external hard disk on a weekly basis, except when I forget to do it... :-s

Never thought of using it like that....perhaps time to reconsider. Currently everything is on my laptop....

On my computer and then a back-up on an external hard drive.

| On my computer + Dropbox + Mozy back-up | Mar 28, 2012 |
On my computer which backs up to the cloud via Mozy every evening. I'm also working between my study and the kitchen at the moment to supervise my 5 month-old puppy, so all the files I'm using are on Dropbox so I can easily pick up and carry on no matter where I am. My netbook has Dropbox too so I can also work on there if I want to work when I'm out and about. Invaluable!

I'd need a fuller definition of "translation data" before being able to answer.
I keep a folder called "WORK" on my PC with all my work-related content (client folders, billing, TMs, glossaries, etc) which I back up onto a pen drive more or less daily, or at least a couple of times a week.
I also have another (backup) PC which is actually faster and better than my main one, so I keep a copy of my stuff updated on that too... In fact I think I'll go and try out WF on it now t... See more I'd need a fuller definition of "translation data" before being able to answer.

In fact I think I'll go and try out WF on it now to see if this morning's bug is PC-specific or generalised (WF Classic is apparently not working today if the user is offline - which IMO seems really iffy, as it's supposed to be a standalone application - and it asks you to renew licence but the their website is down...)

I just send an e-mail to my own account with attached zip file. This way I can backup my own files, generally document, ttx, TM etc.

| Computer and Email | Mar 28, 2012 |
I save everything on my computer and every so often back everything up on an external hard drive.
When I am translating a large file, I back it up as I progress and email myself the file to make sure that I have it in case the computer dies on me. When the file has been proofed and sent off to the client, I delete the files from my inbox.
