Hi gang -
I know that backing up a system is important - what's the best way to do this for a mac? DVD? External HD? I don't want to pay for .mac if I really don't need it, and all I want to do is save things in case of a HD failure - or bad update...
Suggestions? DVD is the cheapest way...
Thanks.
EDITED TO ADD: I am reading the manual for SuperDuper right now - it recommends an external firewire HD...but in regards to size, how many of you actually match the size of your external HD to your internal HD?
