Hi Chris
Do not go for a backup tape drive under any circumstances, IMHO they are slow,
unreliable and quite frankly old technology. Jim's suggestion is the best, go
for an external USB hard drive, they are getting cheaper all the time. I would
also recommend Acronis True Image for creating and automating your backups.
The
latest version is V.9 but earlier versions are also good and you may pick them
up much cheaper, try a Frugle or Emile suggested a good site a while back, for
cheap brand name software. Jim (purcel), is an expert on backing up ... a real
belt and bracers man who has uploaded some useful files on backing up to the A1
files section.

I am looking for a way to automate my backup operations. I am thinking
of getting a tape backup drive because, my CD-R/W is only capable of
using 650MB CD-R/W discs.
My PC:
CPU: P-III
Mhz: 990
HDC: SCSI AHA-19160
HD #1: 18.2GB SCSI U160 HD
HD #2: 18.3GB SCSI U160 HD
HD #3: 36.7GB SCSI U160 HD
HD #4: 73.4GB SCSI U160 HD
