Dilbert. I don't want to get a second drive and have my machine back it up. As I stated earlier, I am mucking with the hardware on my desktop machine on a fairly regular basis and I don't want my wife to not have access to her files because I've got my machine tore into pieces.
Thanks for the input everybody!
