If one of the drives crash, how would I remedy the crash? The drives I currently have are different sizes, would this cause a problem when using ccd? I'm trying to figure out some kind of cheap backup system for my system. I currently have a 5GB and a 6GB IDE drive and have about 4GB of free space (I could clear about 5.5GB if necessary). Is ccd the way to go? Thanks, Michael
