I would like to sort of set it and forget it. I want to be able to restore any files that might get lost. I want documents, pictures, music and data files (like the outlook pst file). To be regularly backed up. I have a mirrored eSATA external connected to my computer to hold the backup. I am a bit conflicted about the system back up (image of my entire computer). But, welcome recommendations. I have been having problems with a failed hard drive on my Raid0 system and just had the offending drive replace. I rebuilt the data from the good drive and that seems to be going well, but am worried about future failures as some of the Dell folks think it might be a software problem even though I just updated the BIOS and that was supposed to fix a software bug that causes this drive issue. I am running Win 7. My desktop computer is one year old. Thanks for your assistance.
