Good thing is that i have two free HDD's here with 2TB each, so this would work ;)Yeah, I don't have a spare copy offsite either -- but I don't (currently) have any electronic data that would be absolutely devastating if I lost it. If / when I have kids or something, then baby pics among other things will likely have that status.
But i guess i should consider it, loosing all the data is quite hard (Had that a while ago).
[snip] One question Dan: What do u use to encrypt your files? also openssl?I just use PGP.
I need to delve into PGP a little more ;) (Currently i use the openssl command to do my encrpytion on the backup archives)
