Ditto what Graeme suggested.
Firewire (OSX here) for additional online/offline storage with very
easy and fast access.
DVD's for "permanent" archives, not active work (if you have the
patience to burn them).
Cheers,
Jeff

Hi,
I have a stack of firewire disks - very cheap per GB but don't know
how
reliable they are. However, I've never had one fail, and I don't
know a
better (cheaper) way of having a couple of TB on one machine, and
easily
movable to another machine... (e.g. a synchrotron)
Processing data straight from DVD hurts - the read time is dreadfully
slow. Firewire is almost as good as locally attached disk. The only
problem I find with firewire on Linux is that the only file system
which
has decent performance is FAT32, which is not a great system but
not too
bad for large images.
If anyone knows how to get decent performance (r/w) with a POSIX file
system I'm all ears!
Cheers,
Graeme

Dear All,
as a followup to my earlier posting, I would like to
ask opinions on the optimal ways to save and keep
the collected data.
Tape is slow and cumbersome. Other options would be
(1) dedictated hard disks / RAID, and
(2) DVDs (which will probably be replaced by
BluRays or like within the next year or two).
Best wishes,
Sergei.
