What kind of money is a external USB HDD? not that I have any for rest of month & it looks the same for next month BUT the one after looks good. OK I will put solved, cause there no more to do with that stupid drive OHHH He put Viperon my PC for antivirus Hum I never heart of it before. I was looking at bitdefender & was wondering if you saw any trouble with it in these forums?? I thank you Boggin for dealing with me & my dumb PC you have a great day OPPS night I guess it would be for you :wink:

Up until about 3 years back I was using DVDs for my system images and with just programs and what I keep in my Docs and Downloads folders, that only amounts to ~57GB which including the Recovery partition used to take 5 DVDs.
Where photos, music and videos are concerned then that can be substantially more, but it is a cheaper option.
About 3 years back I bought my Seagate 500GB external HDD which cost £60 but the price has come down on them since, as the 1TB that I bought this year, also cost £60.
I would think the price would vary depending upon which country you were in.
You can Google for a review on Vipre - here's one which puts it in a decent light -

While Bitdefender usually gets good reviews, it can bog down your computer and I know of one person on another forum who had to remove it last year because it reduced the machine's performance to a crawl - so I wouldn't recommend buying something which may or not affect a computer's performance.

OHH WOW the DVD's do sound good I will give them a go & see from there. Thanks for the info on bitdefender :wink: I let that one pass then. From reading that link you gave me I will leave viper alone & let it do its thing. Thanks Again Boggin for all your help & info. :wink:
Boggin:
The only downside to using DVDs is that creating a system image onto them seems to take ages, but at least it does give you a back up.
Another downside is that with an external HDD you can use drag & drop for individual items, but you could be restricted as to the file sizes when doing that onto DVDs.
Peaches:
Hummm Well it sounds like the solution is for me to be rich & famous :shy: Sorry i couldnt help it. I will use the DVD's till I can afford a external HDD. Ohh how do you know if it worked I mean after you upload to the DVD the image or files you need how can you tell if it a good upload? not right words but close :undecided:
