Digital BW, The Print

Paul-

I have very redundant (some might say anal) storage system.  My most 
recent years, plus those used often, are stored on two 1.5TB HDDs in my 
system.  Those are also backed up weekly (auto) to a 2TB (RAID 1) NAS 
box.  NAS really is not a backup device.  Monthly, it backs those up to 
a 1.5TB USB drive attached to it.

EVERYTHING is on CD/DVD as separate shoots.  There are two of each using 
different brands of discs.  No Memorex or cheapies as memorex have been 
known to disappear within as little as two weeks.  One set goes off-site.

Sounds anal, huh?  A fire would wipe all the drives, leaving only my 
off-site.
