In Reply to: Q for everyone - backing up your collection posted by jdarg on October 17, 2004 at 18:49:49:
Use an external firewire drive, duplicate the contents of your collection every now and then and store it elsewhere. Also protects against disk corruption, fire and theft.FWIW, I just had to replace the 60GB drive in my notebook because it died. At least it gave plenty of warning (retries, strange noises).
Also, see below for Iomega's REV. Each cartridge is 38GB native. I haven't yet priced this but doubt that it's economically viable compared to 250GB/300GB external drives.
