same no matter how you store them. The differences are:
(1) How easy is it to write and read your pictures from the medium
(2) How many pictures you can store on it
(3) How long will they be readable
Forget a floppy. You can barely fit one high-quality image from
today's cameras on it, and they're very prone to errors.
Normally, you'll put your pictures on your hard disk to start with.
Then you should make back-ups. A CD-R is probably the best choice:
they're cheap, you can fit a fair number of pics on a single CD-R,
they're removable, and they're fairly reliable. You should have at
least two copies of your stuff stored at separate locations at all
times; that way, it's very unlikely that you'll lose both. In other
words, if you keep them on your hard disk, burn the onto a CD-R and
take the CD-R somewhere else for safe keeping. If you delete them
from your hard disk to make space, make another copy on a CD-R
first, and put that somewhere other than the first CD-R.
Also, copy all your CD-R's every five years or so: the media
degrade with time. In five years, CD-R's will almost certainly be
gone anyway; DVD-R's or even their successor will be the
replacement medium.

Good post, but Mr. Boltan is under the impression that once you
burn a few images to a CDR the disk is finished.
Mr. Boltan, when you burn a CDR you have a choice to write the disk
or write the session. If you choose write the disk, the disk is
finished. If you choose write the session then you can keep adding
incrementally until the CDR is full.

not entirely true , when you create the first session you have to tell it that it will be a multisession cd (although this is th edefault by most burning programs)Hi Petteri

one small thing is that the cd can only be read in a cdw drive with
the correct software (same packet writing software as you used)
until the point where you finalise the cd ,then any drive can read
it.
i do recall that adaptec did make a program that allowed you to
read the cds in computers without packet writing software installed
though
there is 2 programs that are widely used , directCD by roxio
(usually with easycd creator)and InCD (i think its called) by nero
(packaged with nero and burners often)
the sony mavica CD's cameras use packet writing thats why you have
to finilize them before they can be read in noraml pc's
