Back up the 2nd HD once a week/month on an ext for added protection.

I have like 7 HD's.. I only use c: for programs..

..but I have a lot of programs, and add-ons to photoshop etc that I'd need to refind somewhere as I don't have the original .zips and stuff. That's why I wanted to keep my original C: + programs in it.
