What do you prefer for a back up medium for your pc? I'm talking about OS images as well as different types of files. Thanks. Hugger
I use a usb2 external hard drive (500GB < $100, terabyte not a whole lot more). I can do full backups until I get tired of them. And verify/restore are one click operations
An external and/or removable hard disk. Unlike CD or DVDs you don't need special software to put files on a hard disk
Some people say that flash media is not stable enough to be trusted with something as important as critical files and backup images. While I have never attempted to recover a backup image from flash media, I have for several years and literally hundreds of occurrences installed software applications (.zip and .exe) from USB flash drives and have never experienced a corrupted install.
