Carbon Copy Cloner is a very well designed backup tool. I used it for 
some years until I upgraded my OS to Snow Leopard, which has "Time 
Machine." Although a paranoid friend of mine won't use the latter, 
and still uses Carbon Copy Cloner, I concluded that Time Machine was 
inobtrusive and that the hourly recent backups could save my ass some 
day.
