I am in a similar dilemma. The only method of backing up currently for me
is on floppy disk, but even that I can't do now because my a1200's fd
controller has died (or the fd is dead). What are the best ways to backup?
At the moment I can think of:
floppy (slow, awkward, but cheap in that no new devices required)
ez/ zip drives (quick, quite cheap, but parallel version not compatible)
tape streamers (slow, sequential, but cheap)
cdr (cheap per mb, but WORM)
online storage (slow, limit to number of mbs to store)
what's the best way?
also off topic : i am getting an a4000 soon to replace/supplement the
a1200. does the a4000 have a 3.5" ide interface, or should i get one? if
it's a 2.5" interface, can i use my old 4 way 3.5" interface that is in the
a1200 now? it's one i bougt from power, it's a buffered interface one.
