Another technical question: back ups and restores

Those who do a lot of work with a computer may know the old phrase, "Jesus saves, and so should you."

We have probably all had the experience not just of losing minutes to hours of work on a document or project, but perhaps losing, and disastrously, everything because of a hard-drive crash or some other problem.

If you haven’t… you will.

There are offsite back-up companies.  There onsite solutions.

What do you do?

I am particularly interested in hearing about

Programs and hardware for backing up a computer so that you could do a "restore", even to the "bank" disk of a different computer if necessary.  Or even for migrating everything you need to a new computer.

Do you use the built in functions in, say, Windows?

Do you use specialized software?
