[TOMMY95215]

@werdnandrew4 This was made in 2008, 250 - 500 were huge just that short time ago. And yours will be 2048gb not 2000 (2048 = 2tb)

I am DUMB enough to not know this and I am just now learning computers " Mr. lessthantom2." and to ALL OF YOU that THINK you know it all!!! I appreciate the simplicity of this video. Finally a good and easy to understand "how to video " for new users like me. Usually video's skip too much assuming every one knows all this but, they don't. How come all you intelligent people with all your negative attitudes " don't know HOW TO do a decent SEARCH for what your looking for????? "

[ilovetodayy]

does it also save the computer settings you had before the back up?

[Holyboy1978]

When you dragged the file... It created a shortcut of the file, not an actual re-image the file.

Great video....simple and I just found out a couple of weeks ago about this...

[thomas9504]

with external hard drives, can you drag and drop data? say, i have a DVD (3-4GBs). Instead of ripping it, i right clicked and opened the dvd folder, then dragged the .vob files to my computer. it worked, but my computer ran out of space after 3 such dvd's. i wanted to directly drag the .vob files from my D drive to external hdd, is that possible?

[Steinz007]

i love how these videos are so simple and calm haha
