They are really almost for free and one can just hold a complete SH4 install. 3-4 discs and all your downloads and installs are safe.

And ready for a quick re-install...



Now it's off my chest - carry on!
I had thought about it, but my system being only about 8 months old I wasn't figuring on my HD going bad.
If something can go wrong it will. Lucky me.
Anyways, this time I'm upgrading to a better harddrive AND getting a external backup drive, along with going from Vista to Windows 7. Luckily I had copies saved of my bigger mods (TMO and RSRDC) on my flashdrive (I downloaded them to it) so I don't have to get those again. It is just the smaller ones that I didn't have copies of.

All things considered, its not that bad. I have installation CD's of all of my games/programs, and had copies of most of my documents on my flashdrive too, it's just the pain of putting it all back on like I had it.
