“Mirrored” means there are two hard drives in one case (each one 3TB), but they’re treated as just one hard drive by the computer. The most important of those drives is a 6TB mirrored hard drive attached via Thunderbolt to that computer (which is actually a laptop).
Since I can’t have all the original photos I need on my computer, I have multiple external hard drives. These are a pair of 3TB mirrored drives that I use to help manage both my photos and my business. Here’s how I set up Mylio to accomplish those goals: (NOTE – while most of my devices are Mac, Mylio doesn’t care what device you use – it supports, and has the same interface, on Apple, Windows, iOS and Android, and I do have it installed on a couple of Windows devices too) I only want it to catalog, sync and backup the most important photos. It’s also important to note that I don’t want Mylio to keep track of every photo I’ve ever shot. Next, I wanted anything I shoot with my phone, or my wife shoots on her phone, to be automatically backed up and added to the Mylio Library.Īnd finally, I wanted every image that Mylio catalogs, including any new ones I add, to be backed up to multiple devices automatically, without any extra steps on my part. Number one, I wanted all of my most important images (which are both professional and family) available on my phone, tablet and computers, wherever I happen to be.
It truly does let me have any picture on any device, anytime, anywhere.įirst, it’s important to figure out what you want Mylio to do for you, so you can set it up properly.
Mylio photo library how to#
One of the most common questions I hear is, “How do you use it?” While Mylio can be pretty simple at a basic level, I’ve learned how to really take advantage of its power to organize, share and backup my photos. You’ve probably read that over the last year I’ve been using new photo software called Mylio, and been giving classes and workshops on it.
