Where do you guys prefer to keep backup copies of your database? I've read about keeping two laptops, two external drives, online file storage, a flash drive with an OS on it... etc.
What do you prefer and why? I'm thinking of going with 2 Western Digital Mybooks to back up music and videos and would like some feedback.
I only DJ as a hobby and for family functions. All I have is a laptop, a Hercules RMX, and some other basic accessories. The music and video collection is getting quite substantial and I've been thinking "It would really suck if I lost all this stuff" Also, I have been using itunes folder to access my music in the VDJ browser... do you think I should use another program/folder/method of saving?
Thanks for any advice.

You can configure it many ways, but I just have it set to back up any changes since the last time the drive was plugged in.
You can use memory sticks as well although I've found some of them to be unreliable. Cloud storage is another option but not for large amounts of files.

I backup my files with external hard disk and online storage incase my hard disk is damage or lost.
