Regardless of the definition of the word, for you, this means that your external hard drive crash has no backup.

This means that if your original disappears, your copy (backup) is available to restore the original.

Sorry, another definition of the word: a backup is necessarily a copy (in various forms, but a copy for example, instead of a pure copy, you can have a zipped copy). Well, my computer is dying, in preparation for a new, I wanted to "Save" my photos, I never tell Photoshop to do when he asked in the past because I think that the pictures ARE saved by being on this external drive. And Yes, your library is not affected by a failure of your main internal drive. The 'software' is the program components itself. To be precise, you put the 'library' (your image files) on your external hard drive. I put the software on an external hard drive that is separate from regular hard drive of my computer, thinking that if my computer goes down, my photos will be safe, assuming that the images were where I put all the software.

Lots of questions here, let's go step by step. So, where the hell are the actual files for images in my Gallery of Adobe 'put' when I download in Adobe Photoshop? I want to assure you that I have back up on something before I get rid of my current computer, but now I don't know where they are in order to save them! Thanks for any help you can offer. I then tried to 'save' in Photoshop, but he asked me everything first to search for the missing files, which gave rise to a lot of research and then Adobe "not responding." FYI, when I opened my Gallery of Adobe Photoshop, I can see all my photos, including those that I have edited and saved in the catalog, I can pull things up by tag, etc., as if everything is 'there' and ok.

Anyway, when I looked at the amount of memory is on this external drive (where I also copied my non-critical files from the image), I've seen some photo files but there is no way (depending on which is rated display and the amount of memory used) files of the actual image of my k 10 photos are on this extra external hard drive. I feel like a fool, but I used Adobe Photoshop Elements 5.0 for years on my PC. Where my Adobe Photoshop Elements 5.0 images are stored?
