just as a precaution, i advise keeping the most important things backed in at least 2 places.
I dont trust cd and dvd for long term permanent storage, because they can set in their little case and become unreadable after a while.
HD's if you have an external only plug it in when transferring files on or off..
flash drives, great for backups too.. my backups go like this.
most important files (back every week or 2)
pictures, home movies, memories.. put them on an external HD, and dvd/cd, and if you have an extra one, a flash drive. I also make a zip or rar of files so they are actually on 2 locations at once. i back both sets of files.
The accidental deletion i mentioned in my earlier post, was less than a week after they were taken, but i used hdrp and got them back.
