Interested in anyones comments

I have two HDs in my machine, and occasionally image the entire main drive onto the secondary one. I am not suggesting you do this, but since I have two drives anyway, and the secondary is big enough to hold the entire contents of the primary one, I find the thought that I have a bootable backup reassuring. Should the OS on the main drive go t*ts up, I can simply boot the secondary one, and restore the lot if necessary.
