Urgh, losing photos would be very bad, I'm glad that you managed to get them recovered.

Care to arrange some mutual off-site backing up (AKA giving each other DVD-R's to look after)

Oh, and doing shoots together should be getting easier, there are plans afoot :)

I gave up on DVD-Rs - too many. I'll happily hold yours, but I suspect I'll put mine (on HD) elsewhere in Birmingham so it's easier to hand.

Thanks for the offer - and looking forward to the plans!

I'm finding DVD-R just about right. You dump a shoot on it after you get back, and thats one. When you do some processing on good images you save those onto another one, and try to squeeze another backup of a given shoot on there as well.

But I am thinking of a USB2 hard drive might help as well.

I have four external USB2/Firewire IDE enclosures, each with a 200GB drive in it. So, that's 2x (200GBx2) backup sets, one for last year, one for this year so far.
