Tsk tsk tsk. No one ever *really* learns until thy lose something
important.
High-capacity "Green" hard drives are dirt cheap, as are external USB
and eSATA enclosures. (Though I haven't figured out how to pull the
eSATA plug on a running system without it scribbling all over something
important...) So, if today I were building a backup system, I'd buy a
USB 3.0 card, a 2-drive USB 3.0 enclosure and a couple of 3TB Green drives.
