dear all, what are the best options for backing up 40 to 60 gb of data per month? dvd discs have come down in price, but some of the data-files are individually larger than 10gb (home video) and cutting and storing sliced versions across discs is rather inelegant.
hard-disks have come down to approx rs 4,750 to 5,500 for about 120GB. storing a growing bunch of them is elegant, and connecting them in and out, either straight to IDE ribbon-cables or inside usb-casings, is probably not a good idea. cd discs offer too small a footprint. i dunno prices of DAT tapedrives, tapes, and their capacities. but how do they compare? strange how home-use storage can suddenly become demanding if you do a lot of video and hi-res digital photos. tia for your responses. :-) niyam _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- [email protected] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - September 28-29, 2007 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/
