Take away message is that if its important to you keep it more than one place, and even better more than two places.
My important stuff is backed up in more than one place, and I've helped more than one person in recovering stuff from broken Hdd's, so I'm fully aware of electronic stuff failing.

I'm just fed up with micro SD's failing in my phone or tablet, usually when the phone has had a brain fart
