Better than an external hard drive might be to investigate one of the online storage places that will just do it automatically, store it remotely, and let you download the restore (so you don't have to remember where the CDs/DVDs/external hard drive is...).

here's a review of 10 of the companies, there's lots more out there:

I'll enquire about that, I just forgot to back stuff up on CDs in the last year
or so and I can't find my back ups prior to then. So, it's good to start over
again now and then, Graham

Ouch, that bites Graham.

Maybe think about getting one of those external HDs that automatically backs
you up? I've considered one for the laptop. Prices are really, really low
these days; just a bit over a hundred dollars for a /Terabyte/. A terabyte! 1
TB, once considered an unattainable amount of storage space!

Sorry, nerdgasm.

:p

Save the drive Graham, don't throw it away. I can try a couple of tricks just
in case.

Graham,
I am sorry to hear that. Did you had a backup of your files? are you sure
they can't be recovered? What did the guy at the computer shop told you?
Javier.

Our computer crashed last week - lost everything on the hard drive so I am
starting over and the only way I will have e-mail addresses is if you mail
them to me. I have Javier's. I need a couple of Dennis's please< Graham
