I am looking for a good way to handle backing up my data at home. I've got a 40g system drive, 160g drive where I install most of my software, and a 320g drive (external) where I store Ipod stuff...movies, books, etc.

I would like the most cost effective and efficient system for backing all 3 drives up, as well as the HD for my laptop.

Any suggestions?
 
Regular. The computers we have at home are mostly older machines that have had some minor hardware failures already.
 
Get one of the HP windows Home Server setups...they are small, fast, inexpensive and super easy to use. You can add any size HDD to it at anytime I have one and I know a bunch of the other guys around here that have monster setups like Ockie use it now too instead of RAID arrays for their homes.
 
Get an external 500gb drive, done deal.

Or you can spend a little more and go with something like a home server.
 
If I go with the 500g drive, what sort of backup software would you recommend, and how would you go about restoring a backed up drive if it's totally fubar?
