I think it is the process that is superior. With a removable drive
you record a disk back up once and assume it will be there if your
hard disk fails. You will not know whether the removable disks you
have used have spoiled until you need them to replace files. Too late
then.
If you use a hard drive backup you have a check on it every time you
add some additional files. It seems to me that the chances of their
both failing at the same time is slim.
