Yes, it is really nice. I like to have backup CDs (yes, CDs, not DVDs) for my Workbench, Programs and Data partitions. Then if I need to, just copy them over again and thats almost all you need to restore.
I'm glad you could finish the backup without any problems. Last one I did, after hearing some strange clicks from my HD, it stopped at the middle of the Programs backup, and never started again :( Luckily, the Data backup had finished and got a previous one for WB and Programs partition
Its been some months without my A1SE now, but I'm waiting a bit more before buying a new disk and a SATA card. I?ll be moving soon to Barcelona
and then I'll have some time.
Meanwhile, I use my new Dell Inspiron 1521 with Debian Lenny. It's very nice, but not the same.
