It depends on what you are trying to do. Are you wanting to be able to
restore from a fatal hard drive crash with minimal restore time? Or, are
you just trying to protect your important data? If it's the former, the
best thing to do would be to make an image, which will require a program
like Drive Image or Ghost. If it's the latter, what you are doing is just
fine.

Subject: [PCBUILD] Backing up Hard drive?
Hello All, I have a Laptop Notebook Dell CPxJ running windows XP Pro., 12
gig hard drive, Pentium III 500 mhz, 128 meg ram.
With an external hard drive of about 120 gigs attached to a USB hub (version
2.0) running from my PCMCIA slot, to back up my 12 gig hard drive can I
just copy and paste or drag-and-drop my entire 12 gig hard drive to the
external hard drive, or is there certain steps I have to take?
Or does anyone have a better suggestion?
Thanks All
Johnny
