backup pc's

[ack]

how do you guys backup stuff on your home pc? do most of you guys do a full backup at the end of the day to an external drive?

All files are on the SAN (raid 5) and the backup(every 4 hours) run 24/7/365

There is a RIS server on my domain controller, so IF my PC dies, I just and reinstall in 15-18 minutes. All programs, and personal setting like i want it :-) Life is sweet when you have Microsoft :-)

I use a RAID 0 setup.

lets say you have probelm with your hard drive booting up wouldn't that probelm just be copied to you other hard drive when useing the raid system.Woulnd't it be better to just have a ghost image of your hard drive from a couple days ago before you had the hard drive problem

no - the RAID 5 is NOT in the mashine, but on the SAN.
The Reinstall is a complete new install with the latest updates slipstreamed into it, and not a ghost
