I can't find the article about it, but a few years ago when a studio burnt down on Chapel St, their procedure was to grab the USB Hard drive and run. Which they did!

I have used this example over and over with students, evacuation procedures like this were important for the business. From memory the workers we quoted for saying that if they didn't take the drive and have it readily accessible they would have lost the lot.

I thought the question was quite good.

One last thing,
I think Mark should have used his schmacko for this one. I've gone over
this question for a while and still don't get it. What the hell are
"evacuation procedures for backup files"? I have NEVER heard this term
used to describe inanimate objects. This question is the real dog.
