Hi Paul I agree with you if you talk about *photo files* backup. But most documents inklusing email I see on *private* computers would happily fit on a CD/CDRW or DVD. Even better is a (used) DAT tape and an automatic daily backup job on different tapes overnight or at least on a external HD into different folders named like the days of week for ex....
