I don't see why not, Norm. I have two separate hard drives in my computer. Both are 80G drives. When I set up the XP automatic backup I remembered it queried me where to "send" the back up. I designated the "F" drive as the target. Conceivably I could have sent the backup to the D drive but that would be useless unless I also remembered to keep a disk in that drive. I see no reason why the software can't be directed towards an external drive.
But I'm an admitted computer idiot so don't take what I say as gospel. I'm one of those who computer knowledge is just enough to make me dangerous to myself <LOL>!

All my eggs are in my laptop's HD, but I did get an external drive
which is only turned on for infrequent backups.
I wonder if the XP Restore feature can be made to put the Restore files on the external drive. Perhaps then the OS could be restored back to the replacement HD.
