Backup your data
As I previously reported, I've lost two hard drives in the last month. This has made me think about backup solutions.
I have an external HD that I use to for weekly backups. I thought this was an adequate solution, until I read Scott Hanselman post on his dad' data loss. I will now be going with Mozy. At $4.95/month, this is a bargain for unlimited storage. And, since I plan on getting a Mac, I am pleased to read that they are in a beta testing Mac support. I'll let you know what my experiences with them are.
