These will make a mirror of your whole HD that can be stored on CD's or a spare HD and restored in a matter of minutes. -- º~ dªv¡d ~º

I have a maxtor hard drive and I have a hard drive in a removable tray that I duplicate teh main hard drive to once a month . Maxtor has free software that allows this direct copy. Takes about an hour to duplicate a 40 gb drive.
