I currently run lightroom on my laptop with the catalog and the images on an external 3tb WD hard drive. Once a week I use a second Identical hard drive to back everything up. The issue is that when I back up from my first hard drive to the back up drive I am basically having to fit my entire catalog and images onto that drive twice, once it is copied completely I delete the prior back up and wait another week. This will not work forever as soon my images will take more room then I can fit onto the backup drive, twice. The other issue is time as it is taking up to 6-8 hours to transfer to my backup drive. I do not want to keep my backup drive doing continuous backup as if something goes wrong it will back that up as well. I am currently working from all over my collection so I cant just back up from where I left off either. Just looking for some input, advice or your way of doing it.
