But I got the email notice and decided to take a break to pop in. For me, I use two different drives - one for business stuff & one for personal stuff. Plus I have a 700+Gbyte "book" external storage drive that I always make important backups on. C drives can crash, but systems can go down too. That's why I use the data back up on the external drive. With costs coming down, you can get sweet deals on these storage "books", I've been able to get one for each of our computers thanks to the sale they had at Staples. 500Gbyts for around $80 - which is a steal when your data is at stake. My kids can backup their files, downloaded programs and image/music/video so they don't risk losing it. Another thing most people forget to do, is to back up their favorites/bookmarks in their browser. All those sites you saved are toast if the c drive goes. Yahoo has Bookmarks that you can save online and access from any pc once you log into your acct. There must be other ways to do so online, or at least back up your favorites/bookmark folder. It will really save you from the headache of tracking down all those sites you wanted to save, if you can even remember them all. Hope this helps someone! Thanks for the great info Shannon!
