| Feb 14, 2011 at 19:40 | comment | added | Jon.Griffen | There's quite a difference in reliability between a good online service like S3 and an external drive in a friends house. | |
| Feb 12, 2011 at 18:48 | comment | added | Designer023 | Yes it would seem that the online backup I require is probably still a few years away from what everyone has made clear. While there is the space and cost that ok now, the speed and time are far from perfect. For now I guess it's going to have to be a HD and then store it somewhere safe that is in another location. | |
