[SurroundSound] Re: Organizing DVD-A collection help

Yeah...
Storage is a problem.
You use 3 HDD as one, right? If any of them corrupts you have bckp on
other two?
I never figured out how to do that, myself. Didn't bother. But it is a
perfect system.
I just backup on CDs, DVDs and BDs. I know that any of them can be
damaged, but hopefuly, not all. I am not sure how will they stand the
test of time, though...
