Re: Questions about backups

this is why I always advocate operating system and main program files on one drive and all your files and data on different hard drives. My OS back up is a massive 25 gig

cd rw is way to small you need to be using dvd rs or you will be using millions. Open my computer and see how much dat is on your drive and divide that into 650 meg chunks and you will get an idea how many you will need. For my 25 gig you are looking at 35+ cd rws. PLus you wont have to format a dvd r
