[ILUG] backup options...

[kevin lyda]

ok, i see the following backup solutions:

    tape:
	there are various versions.  uncompressed the best i see is
	20megs uncompressed.
    disk:
	needs to be hotswap.  ide hot swap seems to have poor support,
	but scsi seems more possible?  sizes are larger here, but the
	media is more fragile.
    disc:
	cdrom only holds 600 megs or so.  dvd is better?  media more
	fragile?
    prayer:
	unlimited size, media non-existant, eventually will fail.

what do people think?
