Default Re: How to Back Up Your Computer with a USB drive

I have done much the same as rubberduck.
I have bought a portable HDD on who I have all my sensetive data.
Portable hard drives are not that expensive.
Mine is 1TB (USB2)and cost 100$ a year ago.
Another advantage for me having both a laptop and a desktop.
I do not have to have two sets of data.

It is easier just to move you data from your hard disk to a portable HDD than take a backup.
If you have the OS on CD and making a copy of all applications you use,included serial number, on one external medium, it is easy to reconstruct after a crash.
That is, if all other data is on an external drive.
