Advice: Make sure you safeguard your collection against HDD failure in one or more ways. For example:
- buy an external 400GB HDD and copy your rips onto that - buy another internal 400GB HDD and mirror your first disc. - burn your rips to DVD - stream your rips to high-capacity tape - you get the gist?
- Use RAID in addition to external backups. RAID-5 is a good alternative to RAID-1 that lets you get by with less overhead on larger disk arrays. RAID-5 is well suited to relatively static data like a music collection.
