but if the drive fails, all your work/PC can be at risk. Even having an external backup to this, you'll have to install EVERYTHING on the new drive (instead of replacing a single smaller drive....i.e. the 3 drive system).

Not if you image the whole kit-n-kaboodle?

I possibly need some edumacation on this.....

Isn't imaging a drive generally used for only the OS/Programs (C: Drive), and the larger files (audio/samples) need to be backed up seperately?

True, but I was just suggesting/speculating/day dreaming that if everything was on one drive and image would negate re-installs. I'm not sure "need" to back up larger files is mandatory. I see the larger files being backed up less frequently.

What's a kabooble? Or was that a kamooble?

I think I have 4 drives. It's an old PC and I haven't looked at them recently. I'm still working on a upgrade.

Edit: If you want to count my drive with the old OS (Win2K). It's 5.
