Only in that are CD's the best media to backup to ? Some time ago I
became fedup with all the self interogation about what to backup each
week etc. Bought a second h/drive and removable cage, for use with
ghost. Each week I shut down, slide in the second h/drive, rebot with
the floppy, hit a couple of keys accepting the 'windows like' prompts
from ghost, and it makes an image to that drive. 35min. Tested
reloading a zerofilled drive and have had to replace a single crapped
out excel file.
All works smoothly, so far. And I don't worry about, or have to be
conscious of, additions etc to the weekly backup. Suppose I should do
it each night. Then I wouldn't wanna get bored.
Not that any of this answers your questions.
