It's amazing the bandwith of putting a 500Gb drive in your pocket. > :-) That used to be how I handled things, but it is hard to do daily backups that way. A stack of DVDs in an office drawer IS my solution for photos/etc that consume a ton of space. I do daily backups to the cloud until I accumulate a DVD's worth of data, then I back it up to multiple DVDs and exclude that chunk from online backups. That gives me daily backups, but also keeps the cloud repository to a very inexpensive 10-20GB.
