According to a recent study, more than 60 percent of the population would rather tackle chores like talking to customer service, folding laundry, scrubbing toilets, and cleaning the kitchen floor with a toothbrush rather than backing up data. The statistic comes from a recent global study on data backup conducted by Researchscape for Western Digital.
According to a study of more than 6,000 people, more than 44% of respondents have more than 100GB of digital data to store, but 60% of them would rather do those unpleasant chores than sit through data backup. The study was conducted from members of the general public from ten countries. (I suspect other photographers like myself measure the amount of data to backup in the TBs not GBs).
