Computer Honchos

I am looking at mobile backup devices for business/home machines.I have heard good about both the "click it" and the "ribet" units,both with a 320 gb capacity.I am tending toward the ribet only because it will(so they advertise)back up the entire hard drive including the operating system but, both appear to be operator proof.So,what say you from the well of computer knowledge?

I use Acronis True Image and a USB dock that accepts SATA hard drives..
The Acronis I use to image a complete system to a SATA hard drive. The USB drive can be used to backup data files separate from the Image files if desired..

It has worked well for me over the years.. Acronis has a personal edition that is reasonably priced and makes restoring a system very easy. I try and configure my systems to use a partition for the OS and another for any data which also helps with the backups.

Jp I do appreciate your reply.However,my skill set level is such that I purchased a 320gb Ribet,as it appears to be like me.....simple.Certainly NO offense intended.
