Storage option

[Willbo]

Hey everyone, want a way to backup my photos etc and had an idea about backing up to SD cards or USB flash drives for cost and easier to carry etc

how reliable are they for long term storage in comparison to a hard drive?

Solid state so there OK if they get acidentily dropped unlike a hard drive Other than that no idea im afraid!

I backup my photos to USB memory stick but also archive to DVD, to easy to mis-place a usb stick into the washing machine!
