   My preference is to make a backup on rating rust and leave that home or   
   an alternate place, and take with me an SSD with anything I might need.   
   A backup if I think I may need it. If I want to carry a backup and it is   
   big, then I'd use a laptop hard disk, which are small and cheaper than   
   an SSD.
