After having problems with my hard drives I have decided that it is time to look into a bit of security for my data. I have decided that I want to able to store allot more DVD’s onto my machine (before you ask, yes legally). But how can I have a quick OS and large amounts of data that is safe?

I realised that if a problem arises then re-installing windows may not be such a bad thing, after all its good to do now and again and doesn’t take very long when you have all your drivers and software installs to hand.

I am going to install XP and only use software that can be legally found on the Internet for FREE. The computer must be usable and must not restrict the user because of the software. So moving on, I installed XP which was a minefield of problems from removing my old raid configuration to ‘overclocking failures’.
