SVN 1.7 repo data missing, help!

I've been running a pre SVN 1.7 for a while now on Windows machine. I regularly use a open source software to backup the entire content of the svn repo. But recently I created a new repo using svn 1.7 and visual svn server. I put about 2gb of data into that repository yet when I checked the physical location of the repo, it only has 28KB !!?? I was startled. I want to back up my svn repo regularly, but now it seems 1.7 has hid the data.

question: where does svn 1.7 actually store the data? what is the proper or recommended way of backing up a svn repo now? thanks.
 
Obligatory use git.

In the update to 1.7 the way svn stores its metadata is different from in the past. There is only one .svn folder in the top level of the repo now.
