For me personal - yes. I used to backup vital parts of my system to an
other partition, which was not another physical drive, but a logic
partition of my hdd1. I once lost my whole c:\ due to "tactical
interference" by my power supplier. The backed up data on the other
drive was good enough to restore everything I needed.

It's not the best solution, as it was mentioned earlier - if you have
the possibility to get to a *real* backup method, i.e. ZIP-Drive's,
DAT a.o., use them. If not - go get one!
