Hi Kuet-Fung

We do a nightly backup on tape and lodge with the local bank.  For normal use a weekly 
backup will be adequate and the cost of a CD is minimal.  We also have copies of all 
software installation discs there too.

The cost of losing code and supporting software is too high not to.  It also doubles 
as our escrow.

Starting to get a bit off topic here ... what backup strategy do people
generally use, especially for people working from home? Do people
seriously use off-site backup? 

I've 2 PC's at home, with 2 HD each. I backup codes from one disk to the
other, as well as copy onto the other PC. If one disk is dead, I can
recover from the other. If one PC is totally gone (thus both disks), I
should be OK to recover from the other PC. BUT, if a fire break out,
severe earthquake, power surge strike both PC at the same time, etc ...
I'll be ruined! CD or zip disk backup on-site will not help either.

Are there local (NZ) off-site backup services?


Cheers,
Kuet-Fung
