Hi Steve it's good that you are making multiple backups it's bad that they are all on a rewritable medium (virii like that for ex.) and not protected from human or program errors. it's bad if you don't have a backup outside your home far away from your computer (fire, theft, sabotage)
use the hardisk but make an additional CDR once in a while an give it to a close friend to store. That's what I recommend to my clients. Magneto-optical disk MO is still considered as one of the safest mediums, but I think, every 10 years the situation on backup media changes again. good luck :-) Markus >>Personally my strategy of keeping everything on multiple hard disks and >>upgrading at regular intervals seems to be working ;-)
