Of course - but I've been more conscious of the hard-drives, so I've
managed to migrate everything off of them to new ones, while I forgot
about DVDs and lost data I'd backed up to them. Either way - using a
hard drive just seemed easier to me when talking much more than a few
gig. Especially when trying to do incremental backups or 'update' a
backup with rsync.
