LR sends my negatives to an external terabyte disk (about $100) which 
is different from the other external disk that does my regular 
backups. The latter was a once a day automatic backup until I 
upgraded my OS to the latest, and now that automatic backups are 
hourly!!

Every time I think of it, which could be every week or two, I back 
this terabyte disk to a another similar USB disk which normally just 
sits in a desk drawer.

Do not meddle in the affairs of cats,
for they are subtle and will pee
on your computer!
