There is software available that allows a user to "clone" drives...that is
to copy the entire contents of a drive to another one. However, with current
drive sizes reaching 250GB and up...copying your HD to CD-R's would be
much like copying old 40 or 65MB drives to floppies!
For example. it would take over a hundred CD-R's to copy my 80GB HD,
assuming it was pretty well full (which it would be if I could convert
78's to sound files, in short order...)
