Ok, for a long time now ive just been using cds to do backups of the critical files on my hdd, but my hdd is growing so fast that cds are just too small to handle the data i need to backup. So, what are my choices of a good, reliable backup.
the only choices i can see are: external hdd (which seems to be expensive if i want to back up more then my own pc). a tape drive (which seems to be too slow from what i hear (multiple hours to back up/restore)) or one other solution i found is the iomega rev drive, Which takes cartridges that store 35gb (90 compressed), i can get an external one and multiple cartridges to back up multiple pcs.
i couldnt find much usefull info on which out of these is the best, so any input would be very welcome.
