i have two 200G backup drives for my photos to mirror the 200G that is actually in the computer. i duplicate the internal drive to one of the externals. periodically, about once every 2 weeks, i swap the external drive with its offsite version. i do the same thing with my boot/system drive, except that it is a 120G drive with a pair of 120G backups. i have a DVD writer too, but i haven't yet felt the necessity of using it to produce archive copies. a good day's shooting results in about 4G of files and i need a DVD to hold that on one disk.
