Hi Guys,
I have a couple of removable hard drives which I use to backup my data on.
I like to keep them away form my house (in case of fire or theft etc).
At present I keep them in the boot of my car (in a box with towels wrapped round them - to protect them from vibrations)
This has worked for the last 4 months.
But now here in New Zealand we are coming into our winter.
I wonder if they will be able to stand the cold we get here at nights ?
Any comments ?
What do you do ? I had though about taking them to a friends place, but that would be a hassle picking them up when I want to do more backups etc.
Regards
Digby
