Hi Mark
it's good having a backup strategy like you have.
For my part, I still would watch out for a used DLT tape drive on an auction
to do some additional automated
backups on a **different media.** Your data would fit on one tape.
I see them here from time to time for around 500$ used including some media
and a
scsi controller.
And you really should also store a backup at a **different place** from your
home
in case of fire, water, theft and such.

Here is a link for a freeware OE backup program, not very nice, but working:

Second Copy and similar programs could also synchronize a job in the
background and I recommend NTBACKUP for autmation too.



Back to Pentax topics now for me, everything has been written  ;-)
greetings
Markus
