We've highlighted some of the best examples of those in our 'best local photo backups' section below, but if you already have one you can skip down to the 'How to back up Google Photos to a hard drive' section using the menu on the left. And if you use Google Photos as your main image storage, this can also be combined into the 3-2-1 strategy by keeping a local backup on an external hard drive. Whether you’re a working professional or a keen amateur photographer, the 3-2-1 strategy is a no-brainer because it means that you’re highly unlikely to ever lose access to your images and data.īacking up your raw and editing files is obvious, but you'll need to backup your Adobe Lightroom catalogue too, because this is where all of your edits are saved. Also, no cloud storage provider is immune to outages – so while cloud backups are an essential part of the 3-2-1 strategy, you'll still have your local backup available should your provider suffer an outage.
