Do you have a recommendation for any services that provide online storage? I don't need a lot of space--maybe less that 2GB.

Which one is actually safer, online backup or hard drive backup?And how do you, Mr. Dong Ngo, backup your own data?

I'm running Windows XP SP3. I've used True Image 9 to backup to an external hard drive, but later switched to Norton Ghost 12, because I preferred the interface. I've done restores with TI, but never needed to while using Ghost. Is Ghost 12 generally reliable? In your opinion, what's the most reliable imaging software for XP today?

Hello, what is your favorite online backup service? I'd like unlimited storage.

I have all my music files on my computer,but once in a while I have to reset my computer due to a virus of something like that.
IS THERE A FREE PROGRAM ONLINE THAT WILL LET ME BACK UP MY MUSIC (SONGS) SO THAT I CAN KEEP THE SAVE IN CASE MY COMPUTER CRUSHES???

Just out of curiousity, is it CommVault, NetBackup, BakBone, Bacula... what?

Have you heard of any peer-to-peer network storage products? I have see a few but they are in the Alpha stages. Or they are implemented more for a 1-to-1 sharing. Not 1-to-many.

I envision a world where machines log into a storage service. Offer up a certain amount of storage for the network to use for other peers. And in turn, that machine gets to store its files on it's peers.

I have a Nikon D300 that uses CompactFlash cards. Do the speeds of those cards make a difference in how quickly the camera captures pictures?

I like your suggestion of using Datto but it's a bit pricey. What do you think about HP Upline or Mozy?

I've struggled to find a good network attached storage solution that would work well with both Apple and Windows based machines (I have both in my home).

Any suggestions?

Hey Mr. Dong, what is the best backup application for Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Desktop Edition.

I have a medium size library of approx 140GB audio which has a lot (never ending) work involved in tagging. I regularly backup my media library database and periodically backup new/updated media files to DVD. Wondering about using external hd instead.

Hello Doug,

How would you rate Microsoft's built-in backup and restore center in Windows? Is this application good enough or should I be looking at a third party product to back up my entire drive?
