Preventing hard drive failure
Soooo to those of the technical persuasion, what is the best way to prolong the life of my backup external hard drives? Should I only leave them on when I am actively using them transferring data, leave them on all the time, something inbetween? Yes I backup everything to DVD's as well, so I'm not solely relying on these for my data's safety, but I'm not exactly rich enough to afford new 500gb hard drives on a whim.
