I am interested to find out what some of you recommend out there for my situation....

I have 2 hard drives in raid 0 to which I cannot afford to lose data - I have a 3rd hard drive being added tomorrow mainly to be used for backups, but also for Vista and another o/s

What backup software do you all use ? ....I plan on backing up weekly and I like manual backups rather than automated tools - something effective that I can use to copy the raid data to the 3rd hard drive and instantly restore its state if necessary


;) let me know what you think

I prefer to use a prog called  "PC Clone" , and an unformatted USB HDD. Never had any issues with it. And it's pretty fast.
