This isn't 20GB of data, it is 20GB per CD he produced.

I suggested a RAID 1 Iomega NAS (only 2 Disk drives), which have 1TB effective (2 x 1TB drives RAID 1). They also make a 4 disk setup which can be RAID 1/5/10.

The 2 drive unit is about $275. I run this for our business with a 1.5 TB USB drive hooked up to it which backs up the main unit every day with a 7 day rotation.

He's buying 16GB and 32GB usb flash drives.

It seems we've outgrown CDs and Tape drives for backup.
