Do not connect your last copy of your back-up on any magnetic medium
to your computer.

Time was persons used Dantz Retrospect or Retrospect Express. Dantz
has been bought out. The new management seems to regard small
businesses as it's target market.

Not counting paid up-dates, I have had to buy three (3) full, legal
versions of Retrospect or Retrospect Express. New versions could not
read old back-ups, and were less flexible to use. I quit using them.
I got tired of paying money and wrestling with the software.

I think it's fair to say that Retrospect Express is everyone's
_former_ back-up software.

Others love SuperDuper, which I have not tried. Carbon Copy Cloner is
shareware; you can try it for free. I did not know which boxes to
check. SilverKeeper had fewer boxes to check, and is free from LaCie,
so that's what I use (on my Western Digital external HDs).

Any software rec. for backing up to DVDs?

and when you say "do not attempt to restore with the last copy of
your back-up", what method are you referring to? Time Machine? I've
had several good experiences restoring from SuperDuper! and even
disk utility.
