Now that you've heard what everyone else does, if you actually want
any specific help you're going to have to tell us a lot more about
what it is you do, and what it is you want backed up.
e.g. I don't back up *anything* on the wife's laptop, but her emails
are all via Yahoo, so they're already
You raise good points. The backup would essentially be for only My
Documents although at some point I would like to start backing up the
image on a daily basis too. Never planned on trying to backup the
operating system. It's too much fun reinstalling it :)

Oh, I didn't mean to imply your C: image wouldn't include your OS. I
just didn't want you to think you would _never_ have to reinstall an
OS. The trick is partitioning your C drive small enough to hold
everything you need on a daily basis as well as all your documents.
Currently, I do around 50gb
a lot of people back up to a single external drive. i think this not a good
idea. i have not had good luck with external drive reliability. if possible,
back up to cd's or dvd's and grandfather them. for my company, we did a backup
every day just before closing. used append feature. dated

You are incorrect. In my own case, my tax records for years are kept
in My Documents, and are imaged along with my whole C partition. The
most paranoid only need two drives - swap them every month, and keep
one off the premises. These drives are cheap these days, so I agree

What's wrong with the built-in backup?
I've never lost anything using it (knock wood).

I think the issue is...what would you do if your computer totally
crashed. Your built-in backup wouldn't work then. If you want a true
back-up you
Acronis True Image Home.
Will do backups, clone, copy etc. Very good all around program.
Use it at church to do an incremental backup after having done a full
back up. External USB drive.
