Lots of good advice here. Probably everybody will have a slightly different backup strategy but the importance of having backups can't be stressed enough. I have a friend who is in the military and lost a hard drive which contained the pictures he took during a tour in Antartica. Thats not the kind of place you can easily return to to take another batch of photos. I have backups on 3 drives on 2 different computers plus DVD's. Not a perfect system but I have had to replace a drive and I lost nothing but the time spent. SD cards are so cheap now you could almost just keep the cards and not erase them as an additional "backup".
