If you could read, you'd understand what I said.
Pictures from workstation replicated to NAS. Backup NAS to DVD/Tape. If you want geo-backup, but NAS in another place, replicate NAS devices. Of course their is software. I thought you might be smart enough to understand that replication would need software. There's tons of it out there. Take your pick.
then I imagine you wouldn't be opposed to spending some money on a good solution to make sure you are covered in a disaster.
1. Get a NAS device and replicate all data there for disk to disk backup. Make copies of your pictures and videos to DVD and keep them offsite (most likely in a safety deposit box that is relatively far enough away in case of a tragedy like earthquake, wild fires, tornado, etc.)
2. Get 2 NAS devices, replicated data from location a to location b. (these locations could be in your basement and your friend's basement). Still do the DVD backups in step 1.
I think that is about as foolproof as you can get. Then again, it is an expense that you might not be willing to pay for if indeed the pictures and video isn't really invaluable.
