use flashdrives? Anything else? Thanks.
You mean as backup? I wouldn't use flash drives, they seem to be even
less reliable than others. CDs and DVDs are sort of ok but use a good
brand, not the no-name variety. However, they do have a limited life of
only a few years, so if you really want safe storage, you will have to
have multiple copies and re-copy them after a few years.
Harddisks work well for me.
Perhaps the safest method these days is by an online service provider
who stores in several places with multiple backups.
