..unless you have hundreds or thousands of TB of data to protect then tape is far less expensive. A $80 LTO4 cartridge these days holds 800GB and depending on hardware compression you could get 2-3x that on a single tape.
Ok, so what about people in my case? I typically do not during the week at all but I do go out with friends about once, maybe twice a week, on the weekend to yuk it up and we can put away anywhere from six to a dozen drinks (usually hard alcohol) in a 5-6 hour period. And judging by some of the bars we go to, some of those drinks have more than the 1.5 oz shot that quantifies a drink.
I'd say this has been my pattern for the past 4-5 years (I'm 29).
So I guess my question is, is what I'm doing worse for my health than drinking a steady 3-4 drinks a day, every day? The every day thing I think is key. The warnings on Tylenol have alcohol warnings but they mention people who drink 3+ drinks EVERY day - not the person who binge drinks once a week or so.
