Something i haven’t seen posted here yet, but worth say over and over again.
Murphy’s law says that anything that can go wrong will go wrong… but with the 3-2-1 strategy in place, your data always survives.

any opinions about leaving a drive or two at work? I’m wondering if there’s any risk to this, but it seems a convenient way to have off-site storage if I leave a couple drives in my drawer at work. encrypted of course…
My only concern would be if you end up leaving the company it might look suspicious when you’re packing up some hard drives along with the rest of the stuff from your desk. Particularly if you’re laid off, fired, etc.
yeah that’s a good point. would need a good explanation for the presence of drives that nobody can open.
IMHO There are complications with doing this at work. If you’re in the tech industry, (or anything with computers at work), you could be accused of stealing data or doing something malicious or just have it stolen by someone at the office, (which goes into if you should encrypt your data… another can of worms to open).
The risk assessment is for you to decide.
I mean, it also depends on the people you work with. You could just ask whoever is in charge if you can. Worst they will say is no. It is amazing how far you can get with a friendly smile and a box of doughnuts.
