First option is only good for small amounts of data,2nd is unreliable and involves a lot of hassle.
Best way to go is to back it up to another internal or external HDD,For plain file/folder backup use
syncback pro (stick to the nope release) or for full disk image backup use acronis true image.
Answer #6
Assuming you have windows, you can use SyncToy. Its free and you can specify which folders you want to backup and what type of backup (echo, contribute, etc).
It’s a no brainer to be honest.
As for online backups, it just takes too much time. If you really want to use something like that, try to save your really important files; not music and stuff you can easily redownload.
Answer #7
The data disc method is not unreliable as Roberto states, if you use decent quality blank media such as Taiyo Yuden discs, and store them correctly.
Personally I back up stuff to another hard drive (which will also fail at some point – guaranteed), and if it’s data I really don’t want to lose I will make 2nd and 3rd copies on data disc (DVD and/or BR).
