    I make my back-ups to CD, and I make two back-ups.  One stays in the
    shop, the other goes into my safety deposit box (I am right next door
    to my bank.) Having lost my cusomer database a few years ago due to
    poor back-up, I am pretty zealous these days. Maintaining an off-site
    mirror of the hard drives plus weekly back-ups of data allows me to
    sleep well.
