Hi,
Why not consider using a spare drive as a removable? Ghost, a great HD
imaging program. Why not clone your active drive, then unplug it, your
things will not be very vulnerable to loss.
Every week or so when your main drive is feeling good, do a clone of it
to the removable. If your main drive ever throws a rod or something all
you'll need to do is switch the jumper from slave to master and you're
good to go, no reinstalling of anything. Your backup drive/s aren't
likely to get infected with anything not being connected most of the
time too.
Then there's a good chance what you're running isn't so easily backed
up, but a clone is a pretty easy out if it'll work in your situation. A
couple of clicks to get it going, then go play elsewhere while it's
doing its thing.
