Re: How often do you back up your HD, and how?

Over the years, I have owned two systems, an A2000HD and an OS4 system.

Back in the day, I used the following strategies for my A2000HD ...
- I used Quarterback to backup files from my HD to floppies.
- Later, I used Amiga Explorer to backup files from my A2000HD to my pc.

For my OS4 system, I use two different strategies ...
- occasionally perform a full backup of my SYS: partition
- more frequent backups of important files, prefs and S directory

I intentionally keep my SYS: partition small enough to fit on a  single CD-R disc.

I use AmiDVD to backup my SYS: partition to CD-R disc (to create a bootable recovery disk).

I use BackUp.lha by Daniel Westerberg (onyxsoft) to backup important files to my Backup partition and my USB sticks.
