Of course they do, but if it is happening to you frequently, you are

 

either doing something wrong, or just a dumbass.

 

Your imaged backup drive may fail.

 

Oh no, now what?

So, you image your HDD everytime you install a program?

 

And, if you keep redundant backups, that is 2 HDD's that need to be

 

imaged everytime you update a driver?

 

I have really never understood imaging/cloning for home use.

 

You end up with an outdated image of an OS.

 

 

 

And, you are still doing a data backup, which, as I said...is all you

 

need.

Yawn nothing.

 

There is no fuckin sence whatsoever for home users to do

 

cloning/imaging of the entire drive.

 

None.

 

Personal data should be backed up to at least 2 independent external

 

media locations.

The Windows 7 DVD lets you set up the partitions and format the drive,

 

early in the installation process.

 

 

 

I think 30 GB is plenty for the operating system partition.

 

 

 

With a 1 TB drive, I would create more than one additional partition

 

in the remaining space.

 

 

 

It might be a good idea to add a second HD to mirror the system (and

 

your files),in case of a HD failure.

Your choice of course, but let me make the following point: separating

 

different kinds of files on partitions is an organizational technique,

 

but so is separating different kinds of files into folders. The

 

difference is that partitions are static and fixed in size, while

 

folders are dynamic, changing size automatically as necessary to meet

 

your changing needs. That generally makes folders a much better way to

 

organize, in my view.

I also partition mine into separate partitions for OS, Programs, and Data.

 

Hold over from the old days. I definitely would recommend to everybody that

 

you keep the data you create on a separate partition. Makes it very easy to

 

backup all your important files and in my mind that partition is less likely

 

to get corrupted (I don't know why so don't ask me :-).).

That data partition is not a backup.

 

Any partition on a failing HDD is lost.

 

 

 

Any corruption of the OS partition also render the program partition

 

useless.

How you do your backups is a very good factor for helping to determine

 

what your partition structure should be. For those people who backup

 

only data, yes, what you say is a good reason for separating data on

 

its own partition.

 

 

 

But many people backup their entire drive by creating a clone or an

 

image. For them, that reason vanishes completely.

 

 

 

 

 

 

> and in my mind that partition is less likely

I won't ask you, but I'll state that I completely disagree with you.

 

And even if it were true, if you had a good program of regular backup

 

in place, it would hardly matter. Partition structure should *never*

 

be thought of as any kind of substitute for backup strategy.

Yeah, you stupid pile of useless shit. I told you to google for it, you

 

GD bigot.

 

It obvious you know nothing at all about farming in the great Central

 

Valley of California.

 

Farms in California started out as family farms. When harvest time would

 

come around, neighboring farms would help each other with the harvest.

 

When you farms got larger, friends of the children of the farmers would

 

come and pick and earn some for school.

 

Also why do you think farmers wanted to have as many boys as

 

possible...hint...to work the farm and keep the labor cost down.

 

 

 

You're really stupid if you think no "white boys" ever worked a harvest

 

on a farm.

 

Nothing could be further from the truth.

 

 

 

Best you just STFU!

You are so full of shit.

 

It took you a year to buy two laptops.

 

You had to save up for that economic setback.

 

And, when you finally got them, it was such an event you had to blog

 

here about it.

 

For someone making $14,000/week ... buying a laptop or 2 would be

 

nothing, forgotten the next day ... a non event.

Sure you did.

 

First, we got several post from you that the purchase was imminent.

 

Then, we got you telling us how giddy you were about Win7, and you

 

weren't gonna bad mouth it anymore because you found out how good it

 

really was now that you actually were using it.

 

Just now you described how one of them had 1G graphics RAM, the other

 

1/2 G.

 

Apparantly, you couldn't afford to get both the higher(yet not the

 

highest) end laptops, you had to get one of the cheaper models.

 

They offer i7 laptops, so if you are bragging about the CPU, you just

 

shot your wealthy ass in the foot.

Most laptops don't have dedicated video memory, dumb fuck.

The one with 512 MB video has a 17.3" monitor. I got what I need. To

such thing as the highest as new laptops come out almost hourly.

I never brag. That would be your and Frank's trip.
