Yes.  I back everything up every Friday night.  The computer crashed 
on a Wednesday so I lost all of the work that I had done on a video 
for 5 days.  I'm working on redoing that now.  The other external 
hard drive that had the back-up of my photos is the LaCie that 
failed.  I used a recovery program on it and got several thousand 
photo files - all of the tiffs are corrupt.  The jpegs show up, but I 
hadn't done any work on those and only used them for reference.  I've 
learned my lesson and will be backing up more often when I'm working 
on an important project.  I have made two sets of DVDs of my photos 
from 4 countries so far -  only 40 countries to go!
