Well depends from every point of view, online storage has more reliability , and you files will be safe and secure , and the hdd the best thing is that you have your files all the time and you don't have to loose a little time to downloadem the backup from online servers. Gmail account doesn't offer until now too much stability and space than other software/services. I am using http://www.dmailer.com/dmailer-backup.html for more than 1 year and sincerely if you have good connection speed i think online backup is the best way to keep your files safe.
