Re: [OCLUG-Tech] does anyone still use "dump" for backups these days?

[Rick Leir]

How are dvd's for archiving photos? I have been betting on them. They would not 
survive a fire, but they are compact so you can send a copy to a relative for 
safekeeping. I suspect that they would survive flooding. Maybe we will still 
have dvd drives in ten years! Otherwise we will have to copy the archives onto 
whatever new media comes up.
