Default Best Backup System?

I finished a couple of projects that went out for duplication and now need to backed up for safe keeping. They are taking up a ton of space on my firewire which needs to be freed up ASAP. What is the best system for backing up each project anticipating any changes in the future? Appreciate the help. Eric G

Default Re: Best Backup System?

A DVD Burner or a backup drive. Or both. Depends on how paranoid you are and how often you want to go back to the old projects. You can get an external DVD burner from LaCie for under $200, and I believe the same for a fairly large external hard drive. Toast works pretty well; just drag your session folder into it and you are ready to go (you may need to "Save Session Copy" if your audio files are not all in your session folder).
