All my computers have at least 2 operating system drives. One is an archive drive of approved software installations and the other is a working drive for surfing the Internet and testing new software with. Clones are by far my main back-up strategy. The way it works is 3 or 4 times a year I'll copy personal file folders from my working drive to an external drive. Then I'll make security and software updates to my archive OS drive to then clone over to my working drive. This keeps the archive drive very clean to clone to the working drive again. Also I don't use registry cleaners and when my working drive gets the least bit sluggish, I use the archive OS drive to redo my working drive. This works very well for me, but all my computers are desktops, which makes this process easier. Josh * * *
