it is an external HD I have all the stuff on already, and I want to back it up a few times, as my almost new 1000gb external drive decided to go wrong a few weeks ago, and I have spent most of the last 3 weeks trying to re-download all the stuff I lost from various servers, some of which have been infuriatingly slow, and it has just about driven me to the edge of insanity! fortunately, I had a good chunk of the stuff on a second external HD, which is hooked up to a second computer, so I didn't lose absolutely everything, but that is why I want to make a few backups.

Hi Simon. Have you considered getting an external hard drive instead? Will almost certainly be cheaper and may actually last longer than the DVD's.
