For me I had a stack dvd blanks left over, I decided to save a little bit of money and used them to back up folders of childhood photos, documents etc and place them inside their own jewel cases.

I do have a 2TB external HDD, But that I throw on LARGE steam game back ups and movies.

Sure, the “cloud” exists and I use that too but what if your intewebz goes down, good luck getting your backups until it’s back up.

What do you use? Optical media, tape drives etc?
