[QUOTE]Originally posted by Camaro Kid Z/28: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by castor: [qb] Personally, I run a usb/firewire HDD and use the local disk only for the OS and apps. I turn on my disk when I need to read/write files and turn it off when I just need to use the box for surfing. This way, I know all my data's safe from being hacked [safer, nothing's really "Safe] and can restore the OS without having to worry about data integrity. By the way, I have 2 of these external drives and they are mirrored. I'm just paranoid like that. Like N8 said, if you're not too tech savy and you don't have a whole lot of data, I'd format it. Otherwise, just burn the data to CD and be done with it. :patriot: [/qb][/QUOTE]so you turn off whatever hard drive you're not using? never thought of that! Is it wise to have all your pics,music,DL's etc on the slave drive and keep it off til you need it? When most system failures happen do they corrupt the OS drive? I see everyone backs up their data, is it best to run "Back-up to a different drive (ie: 'D' drive) or to a CD? [/QB][/QUOTE]
