Good point! :-)
But aren't EIDE drives considerably cheaper than scsi, still? So, you
could make yourself a nice RAID system, which would help.
Then, just back it up on a hundred DVDR discs. :-)
Backups are a problem, aren't they?
Personally, I'm finding that CDRW are just fine for my home system.
(Actually, I have a cascading system of nightly zip backups, and every
few months need to do a bigger backup of everything, onto CDRW.)
