You could also checkout "Acronis True copy" for about $50us , a mate of mine who's a sysadmin with the Education Department recommended it, after my last HDD died and I bought a Western Digital Elements external to backup my system.All the reviews Ive read on it have been good -Im just waiting to get some spare cash to get it (it's amazing how fast money disappears when you've got 2 boys eating everything in sight
).
