Most reliable storage ?

Viz_2

Can people please leave their thoughts on the most reliable thing for storing back up stuff on my PC. I only know of CD-R and CD-RW disc's, an external hard drive and an extra internal hard drive.

The things i'm most interested in keeping are phot's from my digital camera.

I currently have an 80Gb Seagate HD with Windows XP and other programs. And a second 250Gb Maxtor HD (not too confident about, had two previous faulty replaced under warranty).

Thanks

Hi
I agree on Maxtor, thats why I put in a 250gb Seagate last week, excellent drives, I swopped the drives over, so the master is now the Seagate and the Maxtor is the slave, and I use this one as the backup.
You can also back up to DVD discs.
Have you thought of a usb flash drive,

Hope this helps

No, didn't think about the USB drives. Probably a bit small though.

Thanks anyway.

People suggested to me to use streamload.com for backup which I find absolutely great. Accessible from everywhere and 25GB storage for free. really great.
