You are doing the backup onto optical media?  I avoid optical media always
if possible due to its high percentage of errors, scratches, and corrosion.
 If you cant find a drive and are coming to the Doing Tuesday let me know
and I can bring a usb hard drive to backup onto.  If you can't make that
let me know and I can swing around your neck of the woods with some
hardware.
