From: Dick Kalagher <kalagher@mitre.arpa> Has anyone had any experience with backing up hard disks on micros? Specifically, has anyone tried the CORVUS mirror or otherwise used a video tape recorder to back up the disks? Can a second hard disk be used to back up the first disk? What about reliability in general of the hard disks? If I have a problem a problem is it likely to kill the whole disk or can one easily recover? I am thinking of an IBM-PC with a 20 Mb CORVUS disk. Thanks in advance for any help or sharing of experiences. Dick Kalagher
