I know there's not a "rule" but I was just wondering how long most people keep a backup? I have had a routine of archiving a weekly & monthly backup to an external disk, then cloning that disk. I was looking through my files today and realized I had a copy of the monthly archive going all the way back to 2000! Just started wondering, really, do I need to keep anything THAT old?

Thanks,

Rick
