In article 1199532306.114264@athprx04, says...

Gave up on optical media when 500GB hard disks dropped to 100EURO or less.
Now I back up nearly instantly to removable drives.
If you install a RAID array, it's even simpler.

But they are by far not as safe as DVD-Rs. I use a RAID array and in
addition keep backup copies on DVDs.
