[QUOTE="Kash, post: 996778, member: 23444"] There's really no reason to do this on a Mac. Unlike older versions of Windows, you don't need to do a reinstall of OS X on a regular basis, so you can keep going with the same installation for years without any trouble, barring any hardware failure of course. I'm with Crimson, get yourself an external hard drive and either make backups by cloning, via SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner, or Time Machine. Another option would be to simply store your data on your external drive. [/QUOTE]
