I use DriveImage from powerquest to make images of my files to a second hard drive. Then copy the images to my FreeBSD machine in case the machine dies. If only the first drive on the windows box dies I can bring it back up with emergency restore. If the whole machine dies (ie both drives) I need to install windows, copy images from the FreeBSD machine then boot of rescue disks.
