I've only used CCC a couple times but never to make say just an image file, I used it to clone to a new drive.. I have not used disk utility for imaging only to format.. I just never used it for much else, never had the need to yet..

I would restore the image from say the 1st OSX install CD???? But would I have network support?? Could I stick the image on my NAS and get to it from disk utility??

I went from a powermac g4 to a powermac g5 an honestly it just keeps going and going, never had a major melt down yet.. (knock on wood)

Thanks..

I see what you're saying of making a 2nd disk and then imaging that.. Shoot that across the network for safe keeping.. But can it be restored from disk utility off of the first OS X CD.. or does the whole OS need to be re-installed then the image written after that???

Cool I will be trying that out here on the macbook and we'll see how it goes..

If and when I decide to try bootcamp, will disk utility image that partition alongside the OSX partition or would I have to utilize another solution.. ??? Eventually I would like to try bootcamp out and if I could include a complete backup image of everything that would be really cool..

Thanks..
