Major computer death - what do you figure are best recovery backup survival tools

Your computer problem sounds like memory. Try changing out the memory sticks one at a time.

I keep data on external hard drives, and have a ghost image of the main drive(programs) on them also.

DVDs are almost twice the cost of using external drives.

Give Away of the Day has good licensed backup options for free all the time.

Well, I've been wanting to get a more powerful computer for a while, so I'm not sorry the machine died, just inconvienienced.

I figure once I have a new machine I'm going to play with this dead one, use it as an exercise in computer repair and building.

Isn't there some sort of tool that keeps critical data on a flash drive as a backup of your most important stuff? I thought I read about that once. Keeps all your mail and settinsg and stuff - but my memory could be faulty.
