You are trying the usual dominance game. Pathetic. As you are
obvioulsy not interested in facts, I will stop answering you.
Not many overestimates their own competence as badly as
you do, but you are not the first in this group.

I prefer to get rid of drives with lots of reallocated sectors instead.

Once that particular issue is known, sure. Drives can and do fail
without any warning though, and backups aren't a particular great
solution.

Neither is raid, particularly for user stupidity, infection,
sofware ****ups, fire, flood, theft etc etc etc.

Correct. We aren't talking about those issues, we're talking about
drive failure.

It's a pity that Google don't make their HD database available for
peer review. It would be a very valuable resource. Maybe the drive
manufacturers could benefit from it.

Indeed.

All of which would be particularly common for a luser like you Rod. Now
just ****off and leave us all in peace.

That's what online backup like Mozy, Jungle Disk, etc... are for, backing up
those irreplaceable documents, not the entire system. Mozy, for example, will
backup your desktop, my documents, and custom folders or file extensions you
choose at whatever frequency you want, and can work when idle, so it won't tax
a system. It's basically a document backup system. There's windows and mac
versions available. A user can restore files via the web also, should their
entire system be hosed. Also Mozy is free for the first 2 GBs. What the hell,
I might as well make some affiliate money off this glowing endorsement:

Trouble is that that isnt viable for some systems,
particularly when it involves lots of video files.

I use windows live mesh for my backups, it syncs between computers as well.

Just a real shame that it has no versioning available via the web, since
I often want to go back to older versions of files, and manually backing
up whole folders pre-changes takes quite a bit of space.
