Convert your old tapes to Memory Stick
Memory sticks or external hard drives are now the most ideal media on which to transfer your old video/audio/film reels/vinyl etc. DVDs and CDs are also good to use, however who knows how long it will be before they too are outdated. With a memory stick or ext HD, old media is converted to a file format which means that you can copy it as many times as you want and store it in as many different locations as possible such as other external Hard Drives, directly onto your computer, or even in the Cloud or Dropbox etc. Be sure to make multiple copies of your precious memories and preferably keep copies offsite so that you can never lose them!
