Just thought I'd take a quick poll, as the Bluray topic is starting to brush against this subject.
What backup strategies are you using right now? I currently back up data between my computers in a daisy chain, computer A has computer B's backed up files, computer C has computer B's backed up files, etc. This strategy is starting to fail as my protected data pool grows, so I just ordered a 1TB hard drive that will sit in Computer A that everyone will back up to. Ideally I'd like to get a high capacity NAS with a RAID that would handle all my backups. But I want my money to do other things right now so that will likely wait until I start outgrowing 1TB. I understand that my exposure right now is the destruction of my home, that's a threshold I'm comfortable with. I simply don't want to afford backing up data to a cloud service. I had considered burning critical information to some kind of disc media and having that live in a safety deposit box, but I just can't think of anything I have that is that important. (Which might just be oversight on my part.) -- John D.
