How to best collect Reference material
#2
Balance of both

You can get mileage with some reference overtime so it interesting to have a collection of some of the most interesting thing you can find.

For pinterest i would say use it for time to time if you need to work on different location it will save you having to rely on a external disk that can be lost.

Best is to avoid over collecting.Collecting reference eat alot of time it can be a trap sometime because on pinterest you jump from one board to an other use google first than pinterest if you can't find anything on google.Google as also a some option you can use to get certain image with specific requirement it hard to explain shortly so i advice you check careful how to do search on google

Sure is good to make sure to have a back up in case of hardware failure it an investement well spent if you ask me.Would you rather spend time create a back folder(can take up to 3hour depending on size and computer) or find each and every single thing you lost(probably impossible and so huge of a task that you will cry in a corner (well for me if it would happen to me).

There is also the cloud but i prefer a hard disk it just feel more personal and less dangerous to lose a password or something.

Perfection is unmeasurable therefor it impossible to reach it.
