I can’t wrap my head around how the people in the article get anything done on the computer.
Sure, I could have File Explorer search for a file in theory, but it’s ridiculously slow and often fails to find the files I actually want. It’s way faster to just have things organized on a day-to-day basis
Oddly enough I’ve always sorted current working files by date.
Then when backup time comes I’ll look at the last dated file in the archive, then go to that date in my current work folder and everything newer goes into the backup. Once it’s in the main backup folder, I then sort the files into year and project.
Still, on my system (a MacPro from the Olden Times when Steve Jobs was still kicking) I have 4 drives, so it’s crucial to know what is where.
