Routine backup is standard in big business.

If it weren't so time-consuming, it would be part of your routine. As it is, maybe it is better to have someone else do it.

Level 1 - Hardware Technique

Completely FREEZE your existing experience (AKA cloning, mirroring, ghosting, imaging, etc.)
Hardware mirroring - complete sector-by-sector copying via standalone hardware - confidential - requires data ownership waiver - ALL Operating Systems supported - no locked harddrives ( xbox, many dvrs, etc. )
- massive fragmentation leads to bad sectors which will prevent full backup -

Level 2 - Software Technique

Using True Image (our prefered alternative to Norton's popular Ghost software) and a 2nd clean HD, we freeze your current drive and restore it onto the new one. The new one is then placed back into the computer to operate and the original serves as a dependable backup.

Level 3 - Software Technique

File archival to cd, dvd, flash drive, hd (typically requires your computer to power up into windows). Some drives, even if corrupt, can be removed and mounted in another system for backup.

Level 4 - Software Technique

Deepfreeze Pro software - turns your PC into an appliance - Windows 98, XP, 2000, and Vista supported

Shop Notes

HW - if target pc > service pc, then use TI, else use TI on service pc or DiskJockey (complete privacy) - then, put old drive in external enclosure or as secondary drive
