Hi John... I shoot more than others, less that some, but I end up with 
2GB to 6GB a month (My *ist-DS is always in RAW mode, so my images are 
around 10MB each).

I store all my images on two hard drives that mirror each other. I also 
organize my photos into 4GB groups, and each group is burned onto two 
DVD-R disks (of different brands). One DVD goes into a binder I keep at 
work, and one stays in a binder at home.

I don't use double-layer DVDs, which I understand are generally not 
suitable for backups.
