• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

Just finished backing up files

I finally completed a complete re-organization of my CFS2 files, including transferring some absolutely ancient stuff stored on CDs to my external hard disc. I was suprised to see that even after eliminating duplicates I had 115 gigabytes of files. A random sampling shows dl dates going back to 2001. I guess I'll have to go back in and see how many are really useful, and how many can be relegated back to CD storage. If I run across anything really interesting I'll let everyone know.

Backup

Hi DD,

I got a 2TB external hard drive for Christmas, and thought now is the perfect time to Do a BIG sort and backup. I had no idea I had that many CFS2 files stuck away in various places. I now have my CFS2 addon files in 2 external hdd, my desktop, and my laptop. If I lose them all, it will be because of an EMP event, or something equally catastrophic.

I Know what you mean about time, I pulled the pin on the 2nd of Feb., and I too am now unemployed, errrr.... retired.
