"As for backing up to a file, by running the backup from a DVD, I can
have the whole process automated. I use 3 DVDs to backup to 3 different
files."
I don't understand the above - could you explain it differently?
I also copy my backup & images drive to a USB Passport drive.
I'm thinking of getting another Passport & alternating - keeping one in my safe.
I could put one or two image files of C onto a DVD, but my data partition is just too large for that now.

I do much the same as you suggest, Anna, with one difference. I use an
external USB drive.
I know that it is slower that your method but it does allow the backup
to be stored off site in a safe place. I find setting the backup to run
over lunch time does not interfere with when I need to use my computer.
