why not hard drive, i got 120GB...

but it's an option as well...

I've seen this sold at Harvey Norman and AllIt in LYP.

Burn to CDR's and store them there. But its not cheap though!.

2gig where can fit? if you take lots of pix definately more than this .......

any recommended camera??? hehehe...

Well, when 1 gmail account created, you can have 100 accounts behind your account. So when you open a gmail account, is actually you will have 200gig. Is that still not enough for you? Somemore they will always backup your datas, where to get, FOC and can save files?

yeah right ...... but you will always need to be online to get your pics and you will have to spend time to upload. max email size is 10m right? that can only fit 2-3 high megapix in one email. can you imagine taking hundreds of pix in each photo outing session and then upload it? dvd backup is faster.

the gmail have any rules on inactive account? if yes imagine keeping your 100gmail accounts active.

gmail backup is a good idea if you don't have a large active pics library....

Well for me i'll
1) Burn those pics in DVD+R
2) Save it in a external hard disc

Why not make a poll?

Zip it up and email to own account. Forever safe unless if you dont log in for a year

question : large size of photos, how i gonna zip them all & upload to email?? haha

BTW, i have a fren who change his HDD every 6 months just to back up his photos~~ ensure no HDD problem could happen

burn to dvdr (2 copies) keep in ziplock cd holder, cd holder keep in cabinet away from sunlight, cabinet keep in room w/air cond 16hrs a day.

One visit to titiwangsa already yielded 1GB of data. Looks like CDRW is no longer practical.

It'll be either DVDRW and/or external HDD.

lol, i guess im not the only 1

i have a primary copy in my ext hdd. and a backup of the hdd
every now and then ill backup my progs and pics to dvdrw.
and i have a archive dvd9 where i have a couple yrs of pics.

i have read on other website, the guy keep one copy in the PC where he working on, some DVD, and copy in HDD which he keep in a safe in his relative place...

y he keep a copy in other place,? he said if his house got burn down he still got a copy in his relative place

Here's what I normally do:

1. Keep a copy into PC HDD
2. Backup into External HDD
3. Make a DVD backup every month

Those DVD-R must be kept in a folder and stored in a dry place

well, put in a fire proof safe?

Not really..Even though cd's and hardrive sound good... CD and DVD's have a lifespan of maybe around 2 years if well take care of. Harddrive has a longer span but if should it fall... sorry lah. Ur harddrive will only be worth as scrap metal.
