I was curious what everyone on the board is using for backing up their hard drive(s) of MP3s.

I have a 40GB C: drive, and a matching 40GB D: drive. Whenever the mood hits me, I use DriveImage software to copy the C: drive to the D: drive, giving me a fully bootable D: drive should I ever need it.

I decided not to use mirroring software because that way any mistake I make on my C: drive (deleting the wrong file, etc.) is instantly mirrored on my backup drive, somewhat defeating the purpose of having a backup.

These days 40GB drives are cheaper, faster, and more reliable than tape drives... so why not? Just think of it as a very fast tape drive with full random access.
