As you have two hard drives (large ones as well ) you can save yourself a lot of grief if you use a program like 'Casper' to ghost a copy of your main drive to your second drive, which then becomes bootable. This has saved my bacon on several occasions when I have downloaded a virus that has prevented me from booting from my C drive. I simply altered the boot sequence in BIOS and booted from the second drive. As I copy the drive each weekend ( it takes about 1 1/2 hours for an 80GB drive) I am only a few days out of date which is not a major. If you want to be ultra safe you can mount your second drive in a removable caddy and store it seperately once you have completed copying. You can download Casper at www.fssdev.com
