Separate runtimes for every base figure, including its clothing and poses.

Only Python scripts are installed in the main Poser runtime. Everything else has its own runtime.

Other runtimes:  Hair, vehicles, buildings, rooms, living room, bathroom, dining, kitchen, bedroom, office, equipment, outdoors, plants, animals, materials, vss, etc....

I have it all on an internal hard drive, backed up on three external hard drives and every now and then I back it up to DVDs.

I use a file synchronisation utility to keep the backups up to date. My husband wrote it for me. It is very similar to Allsync, which would do the job just as well.

I rely heavily on my memory and on Poser's library search to find stuff when I need it.

Another great utility (not 3d-specific) is Copernic Desktop Search. This is useful because I don't keep all my runtimes linked to Poser all the time, and it really helps me find things I have forgotten about.
