i am using acdsee and have been using it for a while. i have about 600
gb worth of images. it works fine, i don't use the archiving to cd  or
dvd as i don't see them as a reliable source for back up. i use
external drivers as "hot back ups". before the last version, i used to
write scripts to do my back ups, now a very easy to use sync option is
included.
