Picture Storage, flash drive or external hard drive?

[yang0409]

I was thinking of getting an external flash drive for storing pictures but I was advised it's not a good idea. I'm wondering then, for this purpose is it better to use a flash drive instead?

External usb hard drive (but don't leave plugged in. Or burn to dvd. Make two back ups if it's that important, these days one is not enough

I'm sorry MOKM. I had a typo. What I meant was I was advised that it's not a good idea to use an external hard drive. But I agree that one backup is not enough these days.
