Personally i prefer http://www.bombich.com/software/ccc.html cloning software. But the DVD option is a good bet as well. Just a thought though. All DVD's are not created equal. Just remember it's Taiyo Yuden DVD+R all the way for the best burns. And use the slowest possible speeds, http://adterrasperaspera.com/blog/20...rchival-media/

So, after I got my iBook back from the shop, I bought a new 250GB LaCie Drive (porsche firewire). Truthfully, it is intimidating, and I'm scared to use it, so I'm going to make an appt. at the Apple Store so they can help me. I don't know weather to use the LaCie software, or SuperDuper...or iBackup...and partitions..and formats..... 
I'm going to upgrade to the new Mac Book Pro this fall...obviously Apple pays more attention to it's Professional line than its Consumer line. |
