create new backup hard drive
I have a desktop running windows XP. I have 2 hard drives, one is the
master and the other is jumpered as the slave drive. I want to mirror the master so that the slave is exactly the same. I don’t care about incremental. I would do the complete write weekly. If my hard drive crashes I want to be able to change jumpers on the slave to make it the master, reboot the machine and keep on going. What software will do this ? I also have a laptop running Windows Vista(home) that I backup to a external Maxtor(USB). If I replaced a crashed laptop drive could I also restore it from the Maxtor completely, reboot and keep running ?

create new backup hard drive
NachtWacht
I could not find on my system. Where do I find dd.exe and what paramaters for exec. I did a search for it and got this: The unsafe files using this name are associated with the malware group Trojan.DoS.Win32.Opdos.Some files using the name DD.EXE are also associated with the malware groups: ??
