Speaking of disks, Addonics makes some really nifty removable drive 
equipment:

You can buy a 5.25" bay unit to install in your system, then put a 3.5" hard 
drive in an enclosure and be able to swap drives around without having to 
crack the PC. Big time saver, :)

I opted for a solution that allows me to do hot swappable IDE drives on my 
SATA interface. Plus the drive in the enclosure can be connected directly to 
any PC via USB and used like a standard external hard drive.

So all this makes a GREAT backup setup. Just buy a $50 hard drive (look for 
good rebate deals at Best Buy, CompUSA, etc), put it in an enclosure and 
then stick it in the Addonics cradle on your PC. You can use whatever backup 
system you choose.

g4u is a good disk imaging tool from what I've read. There's also 
DriveSnapshot:

Though personally I use Ghost.
