laptop backup

My laptop went a bit whacky and I think I was lucky to get it up and running again

Which makes me think I should have a backup system in place when thinking what a PITA it is to reload applications plus all those (stupid) pictures I've saved from here and there.

It is a Vista machine and I've used less than 100GB. I was thinking of one of those Western Digital USB storage things that are about 500GB and Ghosting a copy of the entire system onto it. I see that Seagate do a similar thing but is cheaper, but I have been (historically) suspicious of the quality of Seagate disks.

What are your thoughts and should I be doing something different. You help is much appreciated
