What type of backup/ Storage do you guys do? Since going to HD we are running out of space at a rapid rate. Each show is between 10 and 15 gigs. We started deleting the Raw Copies of our older shows as they are no longer needed.
What are some solutions / Methods you have implemented ?
I put all of mine on DVD for safe keeping (just in case) but other than that, Bambuser stores all the shows.

I haven't really give it much thought since my files are stored on Amazon's S3/CloudFront for delivering to listeners. I rarely keep any of the actual raw audio or video around for very long. I do, however, keep copies on a hard drive, but I figure if it goes, I have the copies on AWS.
It's probably not the best strategy, I'm sure.

I have 2 HDDs that store it all. I have the Raw multitrack files, raw video, etc from each of the shows we have done. The HDDs are mirrored. I will eventually move them to SSDs.
I also use Amazon S3, therefore I have all the shows backed up off site that way.
What is the pricing for a Amazon S3 server? might be a good idea to put my files on there
They have a FAQ page (http://aws.amazon.com/s3/pricing/) that shows the various costs, but here's a snapshot of my charges for June 2012. The majority of my costs are due to transfers and not storage.
