From other posts I can see that the back up will not work with a cd. Is
backing it up to another drive (d) the only way to back up my files besides
buying an external hard drive. How do I back up to the d drive. And if I
have a system crash, wouldn't that drive also crash?


An external drive provides *much* more safety than an internal one.
That goes double if your second internal (d:) drive is really just a
second partition on your only physical drive (which it probably is).
