Any way, when I ripped my CD collection for the 4th (and final time) -- to FLAC -- I backed up the FLAC files onto DVD. Now, as I rip new purchases, I hold a copy of the FLACs in a directory until I have enough to fill another DVD and I burn those, too. Of course, the ulitmate off-line backup of a CD, is the CD itself. Mine go into a box in the basement. (belt and suspenders)

This sort of thing scares me a lot. I reckon I'll have spent 36 hours ripping all my music when I'm done, and there will be around 100GB of data. How do you go about backing this sort of thing up? The only really feasible thing I can think of is to buy a second hard disk and use RAID 1 (mirrored pair of disks). After that, I just have to hope that something doesn't happen that takes out the whole computer. Has anyone else got any workable solutions?
