No question go for Harddrive. BUT don't put your trust on just one drive

I have had a few drives gone belly up, lucky I had them setup as RAID
and had a backup of the backup.
While you're at it, I recommend you use a UPS, if you're not using one
already.

Looking at backing up ... Want to do one copy to 25 GB Bluray discs.
I don't trust CDs and DVDs for backup. I don't think I would trust
Bluray either[...]
