All I have are two hard drives that contain the same photos.

I'm looking to set-up a RAID system, but I thought that maybe with prices of SD cards going down, it'd be better to top off a couple of those and store them.
Share your own stories. We might be able to learn something new from one another.
On a related note, there are digital-to-film transfers for movies. Would you know if a similar service (or a DIY workaround) is available for still photos? I certainly would be interested to "analog-ize" my digital photos.

My process is as follows.
For Film, and slides, all are stored in archival quality pages, and have all been scanned with a 10MP Minolta Dimage II scanner (it was a 20,000 frame 5 year project)
For digital images, I burn DVDs when I get sufficient new shots for 1-2 more disks, and back up my images weakly using Laplink, which only overwrites modifications, and adds new files, so it is relatively quick, to a USB hard disk stored in a secure (and fireproof) location
