I wanted to get everyone's input on what you use for regular file backup. Something that can run each night (or whenever you set it) and will backup all the files into another location. In all your expreiences, which ones have you liked/disliked and which do you use.

I've used Second Copy for about 5 years. It's simple and cheap.

I use Drive Image Pro weeklyish. I do a whole image to a second drive.
I burn important files to cd and keep them at work where there is fire protection. I keep my favorites on a web page and all my email addresses in an attachment in a hotmail account. My book of passwords
was scanned and is kept on a floppy hidden at my parents house. My mp3
collection is on a hard drive and on 82 cd's upstairs at my house and
another set is at work (under a sprinkler head).
That is how I do it.

Norton Ghost, or just RAR them up and burn them to CD. This is for documents and such. My MP3s are simply on CD and stored in a case in my room. I figure if they get destroyed, so will everything else I own, and losing some MP3s or movies won't be the worst thing.
