I ghost an image of my OS drive to DVD every month. Every three months, I copy everything from my content drive onto an external harddrive.

I have DVD backups of some of the stuff on my content drive, but there's too much crap on there (+150 GB) to do regular DVD backups on all of it.

I use Backup MyPC software to burn stuff onto DVDs.

Backup MyPC is the best.

plus, i use an external HD.

yah it's good but it's the same software that MS used to include for FREE in Windows 98 :|

oddly enough, being an atheist, i use prayer as my backup....

seriously though, i back up anything important to another hard drive, and anything REALLY important to my joemonkey.com server (so it's an offsite backup)

I am running 3x100GB in a RAID5 array. The entire array gets backed up to a 250 GB external drive 3x a week.

the only thing i back up is my several gigs of porn, which are nestled away on my second pc.

everything else is re-downloadable and im a student so nothing i own is important.
