Just to add another form of backup...

I find it really easy to backup to my sampler.  Record an 8 bit mono 22kHz
sample.  Set it up as a "1-shot" event when you play it back to restore
your presets.  I have a special folder on my samplers HD for my MMT-8 and
Polysix backup files.  I don't use my computer for audio, so I find this
more convenient
