Always more than one! Usually a tape backup and one or more disk =

Also, don't use the same disk to re-install to, keep the old one around =
just
in case!

Question for you guys/gals.

When you're reformatting a machine and need to transfer the data back =
onto
the machine, how many backups do you typically make?
