I don't have a backup, tell me where does one go for a backup procedure? Is it painful, securely stored, climate controlled, I have so many questions!!!!!

Can be as simple as copying files to an external disk and keeping it outside your house, like locker at your work.

Keep 2 in rotation.

Thanks I never knew it was that simple to make a personal backup?

Excuse me for asking more questions, but how do access my files, I don't have a USB port installed. Also how large of drive do I need. And for recovery, if all I have are the external disks, but the original host is dead - how do I get a new host for the files?
