I have a lot of data. Not as much as some of the folks at /r/datahorder but a lot none the less. Much of which comes from backups of old laptops, desktops and phones over the years. Many of which contain copies or even revisions of the same files. So I have a need to organize that data. I’d also like to be able to archive and preserve some of it in its original form as a lot of them represent snapshots in time and that contextual information is lost if they are all merged into one another.
