Backing up on CD-R every week, I think its a good idea.
It’s single to perform and assure total recovery of your data.

Dear Igor/Agnitum,

I am very grateful and thankful for your helpful and informative articles and for continuing to remain the “good guys” fighting the “dregs” out there creating havoc for the world!
God bless you!
Keep up the good work – we all need you!

You forgot the most important part of a backup …. test that it works by doing (random) restores.
