I must have been lucky with my 286's 20MB hdd

You definitly have been. I have not been so lucky. Lost various data on 10-15 year old drives ( stored in climate controlled basement ) , nothing critical, but enough to prompt me to do regular full copy off and back on process as a refresh

I probably should take another image of the 286 and diff it against the earlier backup

And if I time travel, I'll put the key on a hard drive, tape, DVD, and archive quality dvd
