These suggestions are awesome! I only have so much room on this sheet of paper I have. smile

There are a number of open source options I would like to try, however I need to purchase a new drive as it's about time I backed up my backup.

Oh! Another couple tips for people:

If you can, back-up to multiple smaller drives. The reason for this is for larger drives, what happens if that drive has failed? You lost everything on it. Losing a 500 gig drive is definitely not as hard a hit on you as losing a 1.5TB drive.

Also, I hate to say it but they just don't make drives like they used to.

Second tip:

Drive Manufacturers matter! I don't want to post any information in regards to drive brands, but a quick internet search will show you which drives are the recommended ones for longevity. Just remember, like my father always said, you get what you pay for.

Thanks,
