thanks for that.
looks like i won't be using a RAID setup as i already do my own regular backups via a synchronization tool that i find very useful
now as far as ghosting my drive, i'm wondering...
1) does each drive need to be exactly the same size? the only thing i want to 'ghost' is the OS and all installed programs / games etc.
2) norton ghost is the only one i know, are there others? recommendations?
3) since i'm using a 1TB drive for my 'c' drive, should i make 2 partitions, 1 for the ghosted OS and one for the other files. my reasoning would be that if the main OS partition goes for a sh&t, then i can still access the other files on the other partition. or is that thinking wrong? are there special types of partitions i should make to ensure best useability / quality?
thanks...
