Now that really is a true statement if I have ever read one. Well said Lord Kodos, well said.

Re: ATTENTION: Hugh Manatee Shipyards Is Under Construction
Symantec Ghost? What is that and how can it help prevent HD melt down?

IIRC, it's a backup application that creates a copy (mirror/ghost/image/etc) of the HDD, just in case it craps out on you. Saves reinstallation as well...
My networking classes were a while back, but the info should be relatively correct  .

At least the Swarm are still available on the PBW site. Perhaps we could arrange for Trooper to give them a home at SOTAS. |

Xaren is correct, it can't prevent a HD from going bad, but it saves you a lot of heartache when/if it ever does. I keep a spare "cloned" HD in my computer now so if my original one dies all I have to do is swap a cable and I'm right back in business. Pretty handy, especially for folks like me who tend to have rotten luck with HD's.
And in the long run, investing in a backup HD to store your ghost image is a lot cheaper than doing multi-volume CDR backups.
