Backups are indeed important in that you can re-create your whole computer drive in a half hour or so depending, instead of two days plus or renstallng and resetting all the customzations. Wth a good backup, it's a couple keyclicks & wait a half hour or so per disk. OR, back up to DVDs every few months or whenever you've make more changes that you could not re-create manually and they're important to you. Normally I back up to DVD (DL, actually) every month and if there are new, important files, back whenever you've created those. Then another person and I trade backups every couple months just to have something off-site. The DVDs only come in handy a couple times, but saved a LOT of grief and work. I backup C by itself, then the data drves by themselves. At the same time I do any recovery, I first remove any encryption, restore, and then re-encrypt and re-export the keys to go with it.
