Hi All, We are just reviewing our backup strategy after our REV drive died. The cost of replacing the drive is about £260, but for about the same price we can get 5 x 32GB memory sticks. We can then use these for Monday to Friday backup that can be taken home every night. The advantage of a stick being that you are not relying on the tape hardware when you need to restore, so in the event of a fire you don't need an extra drive.
We do other backups including writing to DVD and FTP transfer but this is the main important weekday backup. Just want to find out if anyone has tried using these sticks and any problems comments they have.
