CD-Rom and DVD are the most popular tool for archiving before, What about now??? <BR /> <BR /> Following Options for Archiving which I can think of at the moment:<BR /> <BR /> 1. CD-Rom &amp; DVD, wear out in 8 - 10 years times!!<BR /> 2. Flash drive or USB (how big are the size at the moment?? and cost compare with DVD??? )...<BR /> 3. Portible Drive (over 500GB), but could be risky and easily get damaged!!!<BR /> 4. Get Computer Techinician to store Data in their company through net work?? is this safe??? <BR /> 5. hmm....what's more???<BR /> <BR /> Please advise on Archiving options!!!<BR /> <IMG src="https://community.graphisoft.com/legacyfs/online/emojis/icon_wink.gif" style="display : inline;" /> <BR /> <BR /> Much thanks <BR /> <BR /> Star</R></DIV> Thu, 03 Sep 2009 02:58:03 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Project-data-BIM/Best-options-for-Archiving-Archicad-Drawing-or-project-docs/m-p/182305#M1677 Anonymous 2009-09-03T02:58:03Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Project-data-BIM/Best-options-for-Archiving-Archicad-Drawing-or-project-docs/m-p/182306#M1678 Try a portable harddisk that stays put on one place.
