About this webinar
By now you’ve all heard about 3-2-1 computer backup. Having three copies of your data makes sense, but this relies on knowing where your data is in the first place. Is everything on your computer? What about the external drive in the closet? Or the SD cards in the drawer? Is some of your data in a cloud application, and what happens to that data if you forget to pay the subscription? I call this problem “Data Scatter” and it is the enemy of the 3-2-1 backup model. It’s hard to back up all your data if the primary copies are scattered everywhere. Let’s walk through the problem and we’ll propose a few things you can do to reign in your data and give the 3-2-1 backup model a fighting chance.

Thomas is the Best! He explains things so well, I learn something new every time I listen to him. Thank you.
very helpful as I don't often think about this. THANK you for doing these free webinars.
The information was clearly stated and easily understood. Thank you so much.
The most basic practice that is always put on back burner. BACK-UP now!
One of the best and understandable people who deal with technology issues as he is easy to understand, down to earth and freely shares information about all things tech for those of us genealogists who have basically a love hate relationship with tech. Thank you Thomas MacEntee for that.
Thomas is by far one of the best presenters of the Legacy Family Tree Webinars. His voice commands attention and you don't want to miss a word he has to say. You can believe and trust in his recommendations. He knows the answers to almost everything genealogy or tech related. I just love to listen to him.
Great practical advice.
