    My AAO 250 did not come with any install CD's. What can I do to have CD's in case my HD fails?

    Many thanks,

    Todd

    You can clone the drive using CloneZilla (or another free alternative), so that you'll be able to restore it on a new HD in case of failure.

    The first thing I'm gonna do next week when my D250 will arrive, will be to clone the bare HD into an image.
    Then I'm gonna install and set up XP, and all of the small-volume essential programs, and make another image.

    When my HDD will die, it will be a matter of 5 minutes of work and 1 hour of waiting till I'll have everything set up and running again.


    That's my plan anyway. I've never cloned one disk image into another disk, but I don't think there should be a problem with that. Check everything for yourself to be sure. gl.
