  • The ideal backup location is a separate partition from the one you're backing up. If your hard disk is partitioned into drive C and drive D and your data is on drive C, you can safely back up to drive D

      Are you insane? If your hard drive fails, you are going to lose both partitions! Never back up to the same hard drive.

  • Reasonable article on backing up on Windows XP but with some very dodgy advice in places e.g "The ideal backup location is a separate partition from the one you're
    backing up. If your hard disk is partitioned into drive C and drive D
    and your data is on drive C, you can safely back up to drive D."

    Yes that will REALLY help in the event of a hard drive failure :)
