I would have from the start.
Example, I lost all of my email from 1996-2001 cause of a disk fault... mind
you, I was using LookOut at the time.
That was all my Westminster correspondance, thousands of emails from user
groups, correspondence with friends and colleagues gone - thanks to one HDD
sector.
Now if I get them, the disc goes. Fortunately I moved over to SCSI at the same
time for my system disc as well...!
