daffodil i too used to use iomega back up media, not zip, but jaz. i still use it, but not for full system backups. i use drive image3.0 also, and it takes me about 3 minutes tops to image a 2 gig partition. like cheeky, i now have about a half dozen images of one operating system stored on a separate physical hard drive. in addition, i have about 3 images of a lesser used operating system. and, like cheeky, i sometimes have to delete one older image to make room for a new one. so far i have only had to use the restore feature one time, after installing and uninstalling SYMANTEC (!) software that just trashed my system. it was a virtual delight to be able to roll back to the pre-install os like nothing had ever happened. it's also possible to restore files individually from the saved image, though i have never done so. good luck :) mark
