Where do you store/back up your pics?

[Jayan]

I am keeping the pix on 2 separate hard disks......one is the main, while the other is a backup.

lastly, can i recommend u the ZD 50mm? :bsmilie: u can't leave home w/o it, just like serene.

Thanks for the recommendation, will go down to SLS this sat to see see look
look.

As for ZD 50mm, I'm also quite keen but recently due to busy schedule
no time to bring camera out for a swing since my Japan trip, so ZD 50mm
have to wait lor Even if I buy it now, it will still have to stay in the dry
box till I have time to bring it out.

Dear everyone

Thanks for the useful advice. Sorry that I was unable to reply for quite a while.I compile the responses as follows:

HDD only - 2 (including myself)
HDD/CD ROM - 1
HDD/DVD - 5
HDD/HDD - 3
HDD/HDD/DVD (super ks type?) - 1

Some of the responses are inferred from your replies. But from the above, the HDD/DVD seems to be the most popular option.

Thanks again

Ei Nightpiper,
I strongly recommend you to buy one instead of drooling over others' lenses :devil: Be prepared to drool more when Oly releases 2 f2.0 lenses by PMA 2006. :devil: And even more when 2 state of the art DSLRS are released :devil: :devil: BTW, am still waiting for Kindai's response. :embrass:

(1) Where do you store yr pics - kindly be specific about the type of device

Thanks a million in advance

1) one copy in the pc's harddisk, another in a external 200gb 3.5inch for backup.
2) no idea. the harddisk price like always change..the case was below 200.
3) yes, when the disk is full.
4) the 3.5inch exteral drive is a hassle if u intend to bring it out, cos it uses a power point. in which case, the smaller external drives made with laptop hdd would be better. (uses two usb outlets, if im correct).
