How to Store Digital Photos
Share your tips about storing digital photos and help protect some memories. We've started you off with a few of our favorite tricks, but now it's your turn.
 | Stay Organized Create a schedule for archiving your photos and stick to it. You might archive once a month or every 100 photos. Whatever schedule you choose, the task will be easier if you organize your photos into folders as you download them from your camera. And don't forget to print proof sheets so you know exactly where your photos are stored. | |
 | Store on CD or DVD Burning to disc might take longer than simply transferring data to a hard drive, but the extra copies will ensure your memories are safe. Protect yourself against deterioration with a high-quality CD or DVD from a manufacturer you trust. And while you're at it, make a couple copies for family and friends | |
 | Backup to an External Hard Drive Archiving photos to an external drive is easy and fast. It's also a reliable way to keep a backup of important memories. The best part? An external drive is portable and can connect to other computers for easy photo sharing. And they can usually store many more photos than a CD or DVD. | |
 | Post Your Photos Online Online photo albums are the best way to store and share your pictures on the Web. With Snapfish (a service of HP) you can share individual pictures or entire albums with friends and family, and even allow them to order prints of their favorite photos. |
