IS ANYONE GOING TO MENTION THE SHEER STUPIDITY OF BACKING UP FILES ONTO THE SAME PHYSICAL HARD DRIVE THAT THEY ARE FIRST STORED ON?!?!?
that's like having some important phone numbers. you write them down on a pad of paper and then you think, hrm, what if i lose this pad of paper? i should make a BACKUP of my phone numbers. so you write them down again, on the SAME pad of paper, and think you're backing them up?!~?!?!?!!?
if your drive goes bad, BOTH PARTITIONS GO BAD, if your house catches fire, the hard drive dies, BOTH sets of data die.
burn them to cd, dvd, get ANOTHER hard drive, or an external drive.
