I have all this on an external HDD, obviously - but I like to have a backup of all the data I've spent time downloading....(cough ahem, FTP download using work's connection over the weekend
 )So I whack it all on CD or DVD - here's the MER collection so far -  On the left - the VL1 and VL2 CD's - both contain around 550 Mb Then, the three Pathfinder IMP Cd's Next - the Sojourner CD - That's one I made myself after downloading the entire contents of the browseable website. Then...the big guns...all those ones on the right at just Pancam data - the IMG's - and the PNG's to accompany them all - and each one is a DVD  About 35 gig each so far And I'd like to introduce Suzi - she's the fuzzy thing at the back Helen and I got here a week ago and she's ace She likes Sojourner - thats the one she picked out to stand on while I was trying to grab a picture (further suzi pic - http://www.unmannedspaceflight.com/doug_images/suzi_cd.jpg ) Oh - and Spirit Sols 329 -> 360 was just printing when I took that. I'm now going to start downloading the navcam data from the browseable websites, then hazcam.. then MI from the FTP It's all good Doug |

If the cool duplicator machine we had at work did DVD's and not just CD's - then I'd run off copies at cost, but to put MER data on CD would be just WAHGHGHGHG

Cool Doug, I haven't started the burning process...I hate burning cd/dvd actually. But just for safety I have it all on an external, and a backup on another Lacie-babe

And here I was going to ask you how many gigabytes the cat held... I guess, in the case of a cat, it's more like giganibbles.

...and a bootable DVD or CD is one thing, but a bootable cat is another. Unless of course it's Puss in Boots.

I'd be careful leaving those nice shiny DVDs out where your feline friend can play with them - the surfaces might get scratched, leading to CATastrophic data loss!

Nice collection DOUG !
A bit more and You might need a Storage Area Network with mirrored disks sets and automated back-up  By The Way, do You collect any photographs of the spacecraft themselves being built, assembled, tested & prepared for launch ?  Philip |
